Carl and Jessie share more than just blood ties; they also share a sense of disillusionment with their life in Canaan, Ohio, a small mining town where opportunities seem scarce and dreams are difficult to realize. As the two half-siblings find solace in each other's company amidst the harshness of their surroundings, their relationship evolves into a passionate love affair that defies societal norms and expectations.The film's storytelling is a unique blend of poetic passion and raw reality, capturing the essence of both the tender moments between Carl and Jessie and the unforgiving nature of their environment. As Jessie becomes pregnant with Carl's child, their love faces its greatest challenge yet: how to navigate the complexities of parenthood and responsibility while remaining true to themselves in a place that seems to offer little hope for a better future.Throughout the film, we witness the delicate dance between despair and hope as Carl and Jessie grapple with the consequences of their actions and the weight of their circumstances. With stunning cinematography and powerful performances, this story unravels the complexities of human emotion in an intimate and deeply moving exploration of love, family, and survival in rural America.
