The bridegroom, a painter friend, and a journalist each in turn is confronted with spectres of Polish past. In the end a call to arms is called but turns out to be a hoax.
A struggling single mom's path crosses with a former prisoner seeking redemption, leading them to discover strength in their unlikely connection.
The film is billed as a Southern-fried siege, with shades of Dog Day Afternoon and Die Hard, which centers on Bailey, an exotic dancer with big dreams. She and her Army vet husband Tim are fed up with their lives of barely getting by in small-town Arkansa
