In Texas in 1963, during a critical moment in American history, the paths of two women from radically opposing worlds cross at a small airport. Betty, a high-class housewife, becomes obsessed with the events surrounding the assassination of John F. Kennedy, whom she deeply admires. Determined to pay tribute to the presidential figure, Betty infiltrates the chaotic atmosphere of the airport to offer her support to the people waiting for JFK's body to arrive.
On the other hand, there is the young mother of a family, an African American woman named Dottie, who faces her own demons and personal struggles. After a chance encounter with Betty, both women find themselves drawn into an emotional journey that challenges the social norms of the time. As the hours pass and tensions rise, the connection between them strengthens, revealing hidden truths about their lives, their dreams, and the deeply rooted racism in society.
Through intense dialogues and poignant moments, they explore themes of friendship, sacrifice, and the struggle for justice amidst a national chaos. In this context, what begins as a simple act of admiration transforms into an odyssey of self-discovery and resilience. The film captures the essence of a turbulent era in the United States while reflecting the power of human connection in times of adversity.
