Features: DVD
In this dramatic journey of restoration and salvation, we witness the cruel realities in both the rough streets of Washington, D.C. and the sleepy rural town of Waterproof, Louisiana. Single mother, Tyree Battle (April Grace) struggles to keep her young son, Thaniel (Cordereau Dye) away from the gang-plagued city streets that he is mixed up in. Under severe gang pressure, Thaniel accidentally shoots Jewish shopkeeper Eli Zeal (Burt Reynolds) in a botched robbery attempt. Tyree, protecting her son from the law, kidnaps Eli and flees to her hometown of Waterproof that she has been estranged from for fifteen years, having left behind her long-suffering mother (Ja'net Dubois), her hard drinking older brother Big (the late Anthony Lee) and her slow-minded younger brother Natty (Orlando Jones).
"A soulful saga of redeption and forgiveness, played to perfection." Jeff Petrakis, Chicago Tribune
Editor's Note
Burt Reynolds stars in this touching drama as Eli Zeal, a grocery store owner who is accidentally shot by a ten year-old boy named Thaniel Battle. When his mother, Tyree, sees what her son has done, she panics and takes the wounded Zeal to her hometown of Waterproof, Louisiana. Eli, in no condition to run, must adapt to Tyree's dysfunctional family that includes an alcoholic brother and two parents who obviously have no faith in their daughter. Soon Eli, who has lost his own family, finds himself identifying with Tyree and doing what he can to restore the familial bonds that have been broken.
