Labor Day in a small Kansas farm town. Hal, a burly and resolute drifter, jumps off a dusty freight train car with the purpose of visiting Alan, a former college classmate and son of the richest man in town.
Can a fleeting weekend encounter rewrite the rigid social boundaries of a quiet Kansas town? This sun-drenched drama captures the electric, uncomfortable tension between a wandering drifter and a woman bound by local expectations.
