Seth Warner, grief-stricken after his wife's death two years ago and a series of personal misfortunes, vents his anger at God during a thunderstorm on the rooftop of his New York City apartment building. In response, lightning strikes and kills Seth's dog. Despairing and furious, Seth decides to defy the biblical Ten Commandments as an act of rebellion against his perceived betrayal by God. He moves in with his sister-in-law Rachel while her husband Harry, a shifty reporter, sees potential career opportunities in Seth's actions. Seth systematically breaks each commandment, with Harry initially assisting him but eventually clashing with Seth over his methods and intentions. Meanwhile, Seth and Rachel develop romantic feelings for each other despite Rachel's failing marriage to Harry. As Seth approaches the final commandment, 'Thou shall not kill,' he, Harry, and Rachel find themselves confronting a raging hurricane at Montauk Lighthouse. Each character must face their own demons and life choices amidst this natural disaster, ultimately leading to surprising resolutions for all involved.
