Abner Meecham, an aging Tennessee farmer discarded to a nursing facility by his lawyer son, flees the old
folks' home and catches a ride back to his country farm to live out his days in peace. Upon his return, he
discovers that his son has leased the farm to Abner's old enemy and his white trash family. Not one to suffer
fools or go down easy, Abner moves into the old tenant shack on the property and declares that he won't
leave until the farm is returned to his possession. But Lonzo Choat, the new tenant, has no intention to move
out or give in to the old man's demands.
This sets up a ruthless grudge match between Abner and Choat, each man right in his own eyes, each too
stubborn to give an inch. Angered by his son's betrayal, and haunted by recurring dreams of his long‐dead
wife, Abner sets about his own path toward reclaiming his life. Lines are drawn, threats are made, and the
simmering tension under the Southern sun erupts, inevitably, into savagery.
