On a snowy Kansas evening, a humble diner becomes a sanctuary, a trap, and a place of revelation for a group of unlikely companions. When a bus is stranded by a storm, its passengers—a mix of dreamers, drifters, and locals—find solace and connection in each other. Set in 1955, William Inge’s timeless Midwest tale captures the depth and humanity of its characters, leaving a lasting impression, much like a perfect cup of coffee.
