- Precious follows Mark Young, a mentally distraught HVAC technician, restricted by the demons of his past. After suffering through a divorce, the likes of which he still doesn't understand, Mark yearns for some semblance of balance and direction, yet lacks any true purpose. For the past seven years, Mark has lived each day aimlessly, a ghost trapped in the body of his former self. Mark goes through the motions as any normal person would, all the while suppressing a deep rage tied very closely to his past relationship and former way of life. Although Mark yearns for a happier life, his inability to think about his past and reflect on his choices prevents him from ever moving on. After accepting a repair job in an upscale suburban neighborhood, Mark is immediately greeted by the homeowner Bree, a seemingly fearless and financially successful woman, oozing with sarcasm and a surface-level perspective. Mark begins his work like any ordinary day until he hears a voice, one that is ringing and familiar. Following the voice, Mark encounters his ex-wife Vanessa, now in a romantic relationship with Bree. Finally forced to confront his past, will Mark be able to move on, or will seeing the woman he once loved only push him further into repression?

Alas, the oddball Si is clueless and inept in interacting and trying to re-establish his relationship with her.
