Summary
After his mother (Juliette Lewis), is imprisoned for killing his abusive father, Harley (Alex Pettyfer) is left to care for his three younger sisters in rural Pennsylvania. Harley forgoes his college education, working dead-end jobs to pay the bills and raise his siblings, including his rebellious and promiscuous 16-year-old sister, Amber (Nicola Peltz). Scarred by his past, Harley becomes infatuated with Callie Mercer (Jennifer Morrison) the older married woman who lives nearby. Things take a dangerous turn when they embark on an affair and shocking family secrets soon begin to emerge. Winner of the Best Feature Prize at the **Rhode Island International Film Festival.** Official Selection at the **Tribeca Film Festival**. *"This is an accomplished debut from Pettyfer as a director..." - Dan Callahan, **The Wrap***
