Papaw Land
Set in Arkansas in the late 1990's, a troubled 17-year-old named Matthew is slipping into a cycle of alcohol and drugs that looks all too familiar to his single mother, Christy. Desperate to break the cycle, she sends him away for a summer of sobriety and honest work at his grandfather's place in the Ozark Mountains. Against the hum of cicadas, Matthew comes to know the generational abuse that has happened there- secrets that change how he looks at those closest to him, and at himself.
