Family is not always destiny and houses are sometimes more than a home.

When Air Force pilot Joe Jackson moves his family to Santa Clara Valley during the turbulent sixties, Harriet, her father's eyes and ears, is drawn to next-door neighbor, Bobby, aspiring circus performer and math whiz.

A shared love of the Beatles and the loss of the inspiring young President Kennedy bring them together, but their family's differences soon tear them apart. While Harriet struggles to fulfill her family obligations, Bobby builds a computer in his garage.
