Sandy has been very successful, destined for greatness by the company he works for; he sees himself, however, as a fraud, mistakenly advanced above his station.  He has compartmentalized these two versions of himself, shielding his wife Julie from his successes and failures at work, until Ruth, an executive coach hired by Sandy’s company to conduct an up-or-out assessment of him, upends their lives.  Ruth, Julie, and a younger neighbor—three women from three generations—ultimately meet and bond, while Sandy wrestles with his demons and better angels to an inevitable but shocking conclusion.
