Anywhere USA is a comedy, tragedy and more.

A woman, and formertennis champ, lives in a trailer in an out of the way area. She lives therewith her boyfriend who is on the wrong side of a beating, once a week. A younggirl comes to an awakening. And then there is the other side of the trackswhere well-kept gardens (and beards) mix with well-mannered repartee.
