Warren Schmidt (Nicholson) has arrived at several of life's crossroads all at the same time as he is forced to deal with an ambiguous future as he enters retirement. Soon after his wife of 42 years passes away and he must come to terms with his only daughters marriage to a man he does not care for. With no job no wife and no family Warren is desperate to find something meaningful in his thoroughly unimpressive life. Warren sets out on a journey of self-discovery exploring his roots across Nebraska and facing up to the failure that his life has become.

Recently retired insurance actuary Warren Schimdt (Jack Nicholson) is struggling to adjust to his newfound freedom and finds his wife Helen extremely irritating. When she suddenly dies, Warren discovers some letters indicating that she once had an affair with his friend Ray and was therefore also unhappy in the marriage. This spurs Warren to take to the road and he sets out on a two week journey across country to reluctantly attend his daughter's wedding; he idolises his daughter and thinks she is marrying beneath her. However, when he arrives at his destination, he not only has to deal with his doubts about the marriage, but also has to take on the groom's hippy mother Roberta (Kathy Bates).
