Plot

What's the story about?

Plot
A backwoods neo-noir thriller starts with a bang: a single shot, aimed at a lone deer, that hits and kills a young woman. Delivering an intense marquee performance, Sam Rockwell plays the hunter John Moon, who watches the young woman die before discovering a box of money near her body. In a desperate panic, he takes the cash — hiring a low-rent lawyer (William H. Macy) to fight his wife's (Kelly Reilly, FLIGHT) divorce suit — and attempts to cover up the killing. But when he discovers that the money belonged to a group of hardened criminals, the hunter becomes the hunted in this tense cat-and-mouse struggle in the backwoods of West Virginia.
