Rural Tennessee of 1913 remains an unforgiving place for two couples: one black, the other white, who stumble against the rigid boundaries separating their worlds. When white farmer Alexander McNaughton falters into forbidden love with Annalaura Welles, he discovers that he has much more to fear than the wrath of her returning gun-toting husband.
