so in 1991, devastated by the abrupt departure of her childhood love from their hometown without so much as a letter goodbye, Alabama native and the only child of the town’s beloved late preacher-man, Ethel Cain finds herself disconnected from the world around her. She is at odds with her mother, her upbringing, and herself. Bored at best, she finds herself mindlessly entertaining another relationship that ends violently. Confronted with this sudden loss, as well as new revelations about old wounds, she is desperate to ditch town. She sets off on foot for Nowhere, USA, aimless with nothing but her dirty clothes and a waterlogged pistol. It is there, on the wide open road, she meets a handsome stranger. With nowhere to go and a need for anything to believe in, she tags along. It is also there, on the wide open road, she discovers that love is so often misguided. In the end, she comes to terms with life’s bitter unfairness, and moves on through the light of forgiveness.
