He returns home and when the local authorities show little interest in his father’s case he starts an investigation of his own. Spurred on by strange findings he digs deep into a sordid, corrupt and violent rural underbelly where water and pollution are central to an underlying current of greed. When he gets too close to the truth, the outcome will be terrifying for everyone involved.
