About

Shiftless Jeeter Lester and his family of sharecroppers live in rural Georgia where their ancestors were once wealthy planters. Their slapstick existence is threatened by a bank's plans to take over the land for more profitable farming.

Jeeter Lester fights a losing battle to cling to his family's fading Georgia legacy against the cold march of modern banking. This sharp satire pits stubborn, poverty-stricken pride against the relentless greed of progress.
