It is 1969 and Cecil Street is feeling "some kind of way," so the residents decide to have two block parties this year - energetic, sensual celebrations that serve as backdrops to their stories. Among them are Joe, a long-ago sax player who has turned his eye across the street to a newly arrived young southern beauty, and his wife, Louise, who senses that Joe's attention has wandered. As the first block party ends, a naked woman secretly takes up residence in Joe and Louise's cellar - and the stories begin.
