A father's mundane existence unravels as he becomes obsessively fixated on his daughter's best friend, leading to a descent into a disturbing and turbulent chaos.

Suburbanite Lester Burnham, a husband and father, is going through a midlife crisis. He's unhappy in his marriage and feels unfulfilled in his job. His life changes when he falls in love with his daughter's classmate, Angela, and begins to reevaluate his priorities. Meanwhile, his family is struggling with their own issues, including his wife's ambition and his daughter's feelings of disconnection. The arrival of the Fittses, a family with a more traditional and strict approach to life, adds to the mix, leading to a series of events that force each character to confront their true desires and values.
