As the storm approaches, Ruth is drawn into a reunion with her friends, Tom and Helen, after returning from Europe. This cheerful encounter is soon overshadowed by Ruth's distress over losing her precious moving picture scenario, wiped away by the wind and possibly stolen. As Tom searches for clues surrounding the mysterious disappearance of her work, the semblance of a normal summer day gives way to an adventure full of suspense and character dynamics, leading them into encounters with the unknown.
