Synopsis
A runaway boy crouches in the shadows, straining to catch the fading shouts of men who hunt him. When silence finally falls, he steps onto a vast, sun-baked plain he must cross if he hopes to leave behind the thing that made him flee. His journey collides with that of a pastor — and from that crossing, nothing will remain the same for either of them.
