A gritty, melancholic portrait of two damaged people whose toxic romance and desperation pull them deeper into crime and ruin in a forgotten corner of the American South.

A young, recently-released and unpredictable ex-con with bad luck, and a sexy, listless girl-next-door with a troubled family, become trapped in a downward spiral of crime and obsessive love, as they try to ditch their dead-end town for a better life.
