On a snowy, winter morning in north Texas a young woman sprints from the back door of her farmhouse and disappears into the woods. When Paul, a policeman from a neighboring town comes to investigate he finds the young woman’s mother, Adelaide, tending to the aftermath. Through their interaction we learn of a tumultuous past between mother and daughter, between Adelaide and Paul, and how the line between wrong and right is often drawn thin by the ghosts of our past.
