James and Millie, with their small family, are delighted to join Millie's parents on their recently purchased sorghum farm. The property looks like paradise but the harmony of the multi-generational family shatters when tempers flare. As disputes escalate, a tragedy leaves them with a legacy of guilt and unanswered questions.

In Texas, James, Millie and their two young daughters, are far away from their families. Moving to Arkansas to live with Millie's parents seemed like a dream come true, especially for Millie, who longs for her mother's help with the children. Millie's has always been close to her Papa, though he has strict rules and a bit of a temper.

James works the farm trying to bring in new ideas without stepping on his father-in-law's pride. James swallows the blows to his own pride, following the advice of Millie and her mother, who seem to know how to keep the peace in the family.

Unpleasant truths are never spoken. Trauma's and tragedies are left buried. But what legacy is this for future generations?
