It was 1952, when Gert learns she needs a male-overseer in order to access monies due to her from an insurance policy. As a means of collecting the money she asks George, a college classmate, to marry her. Immediately upon becoming George's wife, he purchases a pig farm in southern Minnesota against her wishes.
As a "Pig Farmer's Wife," Gert faces many challenges, eventually finding herself abandoned at a gas station far from home. With resilience, and by utilizing skills she hadn't previously recognized as valuable; Gert establishes a new life for herself as Miss Birdie. As such, she and five other women, unbeknownst to them at the time, become contributors to a movement referred to today as The Second Wave of Feminism.
