In early 1950, Freddie Quell is a sex-obsessed alcoholic Navy veteran struggling to adjust to post-war society in the wake of World War II. Prone to violent and erratic behavior, he is fired from his job as a department store photographer after getting into a fight with a customer. He works on a Filipino-American community farm in California until an elderly colleague collapses after drinking Freddie's moonshine. Freddie is accused of poisoning him and flees.
