5.0 / 10 · TMDB

A young man in South Carolina inherits property in a valley he has never visited before. On arriving he is mistaken by the locals for a revenue officer intent on enforcing the Volstead Act on Prohibition. As the whole area lives off the moonshining trade, this prevents problems - particularly when he falls in love with the daughter of the head of the local producers.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The film constructs its social conflict through a personal lens, relying heavily on the potent backdrop of Prohibition-era America. It explores prejudice and the dangers of assumption, weaving melodrama with subtle thriller elements.

What lingers after viewing is a sense of how easily community suspicion can unravel individual lives. The romance feels both tender and perilous, a testament to the era's restrained storytelling. — MovieFinder Editorial

Director: Russell Allen
