Directed by Beth Ryan Troxell

Matt has not spoken with his sister Ruth for years, but her imprisonment for environmental terrorism forces an unwelcome reunion. Ruth has no patience for Matt’s lawyerly approach to solving the world’s problems, while Matt abhors Ruth’s use of violence and her acceptance of a devastating consequence of her imprisonment: separation from her young son Sky. Sky’s uncertain future pushes Matt and Ruth to search for new ways to create change, as they attempt to heal both their immediate family and an earth spinning dangerously out of control.
