Stuck in the heart of rural Kentucky, Andy is brought to the brink by Dylan’s machinations. Dylan convinces Andy to believe in dangerous conspiracies and conditions him into following his orders like Andy is one of his fellow veterans. The only person really troubled by their growing relationship is Andy’s single mother Angela (Carly Pope). As the film progresses and Andy’s behavior becomes more erratic, she begins to worry seriously for his health and safety. Andy’s beliefs and actions reach the point that he emotionally harms a fellow student. Angela, impoverished and alone, struggles to find resources to help Andy before it’s too late.
