“IS FAMILY JUST ABOUT BEING TOGETHER?”
In a family consisting of a father, mother, and two children, financial difficulties compel every adult member to work. Experiencing fragmentation economically, spatially, and emotionally, the family has lost its sense of togetherness in the struggle to sustain their lives. They communicate only during breaks, and even then, their interaction takes place solely through phone calls.

Living in rural Texas is a dysfunctional family: an abusive dad, a Vietnam vet with a war wound that's left him impotent; a compliant wife and a son of about 20, two small sons who look a lot like their brother. The dad harbors a secret, and he goes to murderous lengths to keep it hidden. The young man, Jimmy, who has suspicions, but little comes out until a Yankee woman comes to town.
