Alice and Jack Chambers live in the fictional town of Victory, [[California]], an idealistic 1950s desert [[company town]]. Every day, the men leave for work at Victory Headquarters in the surrounding desert, which their wives are prohibited from entering and discouraged from asking about. The women live as housewives and enjoy luxuries and leisure while the men are gone.
Alice spends her days with other wives, including her best friend, Bunny. Another resident, Margaret, has become estranged from the community since she had a mental breakdown after her unauthorized desert visit resulted in her son's apparent death; she claims Victory took him as punishment for breaking the rules. At a party hosted by Frank, Victory's founder, Alice sees Margaret's husband attempt to medicate her after an outburst. Alice and Jack then have sex in Frank's bedroom, but she notices Frank observing them in silence.
