Amy's Jessica

A young trailer court mother, Amy, makes a trip to the haunts of her film star Jessica in San Francisco. Encouraged by her husband, Amy flies from Saskatoon to the seaside city on a try-it-out fling, looking to live the life at least for a day of her Hollywood hero. With her money problems, her two children and her homemaker lifestyle in the back of her mind, she tries living a day in the life of Jessica, who on any down day cheers herself up by flying to San Francisco and staying at her favorite upscale hotel, the Marriot. Amy meets her California cousin Andrew for lunch and fulfills her fantasy of living just like Jessica. Yet as the day goes on, she notices the reality of her cousin, and other people around her. How Andrew really lives and how far the Hollywood version of day to day life leans from the truthful. She gradually becomes so aware in her heart of what she does have in her life that her fascination with the on screen life of Jessica takes a major turn.
