Eleanor Mann is a miserably unhappy housewife in New Jersey. Her three sons are disgraces, her religious fanatic husband beats her, and her vacuum cleaner doesn’t work. In a dark comedy homage to the Book of Job in the Bible, two angels sent down by God drive poor Eleanor to distraction. Along the way, the Pope is kidnapped and accidentally killed and poor Eleanor falls into deep despair, when in Iceland she faces one final overwhelming disappointment that pushes her over the edge.
