Synopsis by Mark Deming
Mistaken identity leads a man into a race against the law in this action thriller. Jed Griffin (Michael Madsen) is traveling through Vermont in a motor home with his wife and family when they happen upon Rudy Wicker (Jeff Wincott). Wicker is a desperate criminal whose attempt to rob a bank left several customers dead, including the wife of the town sheriff; now he's on the run from the police, and when Rudy sees Jed and his RV, he steals the vehicle with Jed's family still inside, and shoots Jed to keep him out of the way. Jed was not killed by Rudy's bullet, just wounded, but now the police believe he's the man they're looking for, so Jed has to find a way to prove his innocence while tracking down his camper to save his family from Rudy.
