A young boy drifts through the spare flatlands of a wintry Mississippi township and a middle-aged man sits in his rural home, frozen in grief after his brother's suicide. These striking images set in motion a riveting story of three people trying to reposition their lives after experiencing a traumatic loss. Lance Hammer won the best director award at the 2008 Sundance Film festival for his assured hand with which he tells a delicate, quietly unfolding story using understated means and non-professionals from the Mississippi Delta.

Smith Sr., Jim Myron Ross, Tarra Riggs, Johnny McPhail Release Date: October 1, 2008 Official Site: BallastFilm.com Distributor: Not Available Genre: Drama Rating: Not Available |
