A tender but morally fraught drama about an outcast and a fatherless boy forming a redemptive bond, shadowed by small-town suspicion and the weight of past tragedy.

Justin McLeod is a former teacher who lives as a recluse on the edge of town after his face is disfigured from an automobile accident ten years earlier, in which a boy was incinerated--and for which he was convicted of involuntary manslaughter. Also suspected of being a paedophile, he is befriended by Chuck, causing the town's suspicions and hostility to be ignited.
