In the hills of Arkansas, two convicts flee an accident when they are being transported to prison. On the run, they take a family hostage, but the fugitives reckon without the faith and resourcefulness of the family they have taken prisoner.
One of the fugitives lost his own faith years before; but as the police close in he must come to terms with the events that caused him to lose faith, and decide whether he can keep running from the law... and from God.
