After graduating in 1969, Mia Carlson plunges in to her independent life. Returning to Minnesota after a trip to the West Coast hardly prepared her for what was to come. She lands an office job in a prestigious department store in downtown Minneapolis. Her five co-workers, with their colorful personalities and anecdotes, will win your heart. Needing a place in the city to live, she moves into the upstairs of an old stucco duplex, owned by a Synagogue. Rented in a dormitory fashion, it allows her no control of whom she may cohabitate with. Starting with Bambi (Pregnant and preparing for her wedding to a guy Mia knows all too well), then “The Jackal” (A nymphomaniac in search of love, with a black book she is willing to share), and last but not least, Phyllis (A forty something older women with a son doing time in the state penitentiary). Freemont Digs is a feel good story, reminiscent of the past with the social angst that still holds true today.
