Pennsylvania, 1956. Frank Sheeran, a war veteran of Irish origin who works as a truck driver, accidentally meets mobster Russell Bufalino. Once Frank becomes his trusted man, Bufalino sends him to Chicago with the task of helping Jimmy Hoffa, a powerful union leader related to organized crime, with whom Frank will maintain a close friendship for nearly twenty years.
Two old friends unexpectedly spend one day together and end up debating each other's shortcomings. The conversation and day go places neither of them predicted.
Having graduated from college, seven friends celebrate their last moments of freedom at a lake house. As they drink and use drugs, they discuss their aspirations -- from being doctors and tech entrepreneurs to writers and photographers. Over the next five years, everyone becomes fully immersed in their busy adult lives, dealing with new relationships and new responsibilities. As time passes, their substance abuse and friendships, once fun and carefree, look more dangerous for some, and each person carries secrets they no longer feel comfortable sharing. Ultimately, they must confront the aftermath of decisions made.
