When a skeleton’s discovered in the desert, lawman Sam Deeds, son of a legendary local sheriff, begins an investigation that will have profound implications both for him personally and for all of Rio County, a place still reckoning with its history of racial violence.

When Sam re-encounters his high school flame Pilar, it becomes clear that secrets from the past can’t stay buried forever. Sayles’s masterful film, featuring a brilliant ensemble cast, quietly subverts national mythmaking and lays bare the fault lines of life at the border.
