Synopsis by Jason Buchanan

Destitute hunter John Moon (Sam Rockwell) finds himself on the run from some very bad people after accidentally shooting a young female drifter in the backwoods, and laying claim to the massive amount of money she'd been secretly carrying. At first Sam believes the cash windfall will help smooth over relations with his estranged wife and their young son, but the increasingly tormented hunter becomes the game as he attempts to cover up any evidence of his involvement in the tragic crime. William H. Macy and Jeffrey Wright co-star in this moody morality play directed by David M. Rosenthal, and based on the novel by author Matthew F. Jones (who also penned the screenplay).
