An oddball family on a Kansas farm are trapped in their farmhouse by an impending storm. The patriarch of the clan is a retired soda pop tycoon. He is currently dating a children's TV evangelist. Also living at the farm is his layabout daughter and her precocious 8 year old daughter, his would-be artist son, the son's fiancée, and the black maid. Also thrown into the mix is the daughter's ex-husband, a ne-er-do-well who is seeking to get back in his ex-wife's good graces.
The rolling plains of Kansas transform into a claustrophobic trap when an approaching supercell threatens a quirky, eccentric family. Between a soda tycoon patriarch and his children's TV evangelist girlfriend, this domestic chaos meets the fury of the sky.
