Synopsis

For over forty years, Dave has built a reputation for honesty and integrity, but his life is complicated by his wayward nephew, Tom. Tom is more interested in scheming to extract money from his uncle than contributing anything of value to the family legacy. The town itself is portrayed as a microcosm of the Old West, where the balance between prosperity and moral integrity is constantly tested.
