Two small-time thugs, an old woman living with a dark secret, a young woman desperate to get out, and a check cashing store full of money will all intersect in a small Texas town… in eight days.

The Smiths -- a family with a secret past -- are visited by a sweet-talking southern gentleman who is looking for small town humanity. But they'll soon find out that kindness towards strangers is not always rewarded, and the secretive stranger will find redemption does not always come easy.
