Three men who were reared together in New Orleans have drifted apart as adults, each facing a crisis during the last weekend of Mardi Gras. Dr. Jason Kent must decide between a chance to become famous as a research scientist, which will mean leaving New Orleans and the girl he loves, or staying in his father's practice among the poor.
