Documentary filmmaker Jesse Moss turns his lens on the influx of migrants seeking to profit from the discovery of oil in North Dakota's Bakken shale, and probes the community uproar that follows when some of the newcomers offered shelter by a compassionate Lutheran minister are revealed to be sex offenders.
