Two 1990s teenage siblings find themselves transported to a 1950s sitcom where their influence begins to profoundly change that colorless, complacent world. David and Jennifer are twins attending the same high school. Jennifer is concerned mainly with her appearance, relationships, and popularity, while David watches a lot of television, has few friends, and is socially awkward. Their mother leaves them alone at home while she goes out of town for a rendezvous with her younger boyfriend. The twins begin to fight over the use of the downstairs TV; Jennifer wants to watch an MTV concert with her date, Mark Davis, while David hopes to watch a marathon of his favorite show, Pleasantville. Through some mechanism of a retro-styled remote control provided by a mysterious TV repairman, they are transported into the black-and-white Pleasantville living room. Jennifer is dismayed but David discovers a sense of belonging he lacked in the real world. They start exposing the town to issues such as sex, personal freedoms, art, and literature. Pleasantville soon begins changing rapidly with objects and people developing vibrant colors. While the town fathers are concerned, the people of Pleasantville revel in their newfound freedoms. Racial segregation, riots, and resistance to the new 'Pleasantville Code of Conduct' occur. Bud, David, and Bill are arrested and tried in court, but ultimately the entire town becomes colored and the people are introduced to the rest of the world. Jennifer chooses to stay behind in a neighboring town, and David returns home using the remote control. In Pleasantville, the citizens and Jennifer enjoy their new freedoms and colors, realizing that they don't know what will happen next.
