'Sophie', a tough yet kind woman, a retired nurse who has suffered both trials and tribulations, has turned her home into a transitions house for homeless people who need a leg up, to ease their way back into society. Within the confines of 'Cottonwood', a motley crew of people with varied ailments (PTSD, drug addiction, cancer, alcoholism, human trafficking, grief and depression) work to overcome the demons that plague them with the help of therapy sessions and a sense of family unit. Whilst under the careful and protective eye of Sophie, the residents' safe heaven is threatened by the norms of society and acquaintances that refuse to let go, fighting to rise through the challenges of life and death for a hopeful win.
