Tricky begins with an ending, a young woman leaving her home and her exceptionally sheltered life in order to find the father she has never met and whose existence has been hidden from her. Her move from the Mormon heartland to San Francisco leads her not only to unravel the mysteries of her past, but also to the discovery of new passions and pain in the wilds of the city.Conversion is a bittersweet love song to seemingly average urbanites struggling to reconcile their fading dreams with workaday reality. The story chronicles the adventures of Seth and Julia, two thirty-something friends, as they try to make it home after a night out. The cast of freaks they encounter on their way makes for a series of vignettes at once hilarious, chilling and extremely touching.
