As Martha, the unappreciated matriarch and manager of Landry Family Furniture, physically readies the store for their doorbuster closeout sale, she is emotionally unready to move on. Caught up in nostalgia for her once happy family and thriving business, Martha refuses to sign her name to the sale paperwork despite agitation and pleas from the “Sofa King,” her ex-husband, and their grown children.


So when the store itself presents a new challenge in the form of a power outage, Martha makes a final attempt to save her legacy - by stealing electric from the gas station next door. Culminating with an exciting twist ending, Martha doesn’t her happy ending, but through her series of misdeeds, this marginalized woman becomes the star of the show.
