Synopsis

Captivated by the lure of sudden wealth, the quiet rural lives of two brothers erupt into conflicts of greed, paranoia and distrust when over $4 million in cash is discovered at the remote site of a downed small airplane. Their simple plan to retain the money while avoiding detection opens a Pandora's box when the fear of getting caught triggers panicked behavior and leads to virulent consequences.

What the movie is about. Lots of mistrust around the stolen money leads to many lies and manipulation.

The partner of the brothers clearly shows signs of mental disturbance or awkwarndess, and also has an alcohol problem. He often shows forceful and aggressive behavior in general, which eventually culminates in his fate as they begin to lose trust in him in the deal.

Hank's brother is clearly traumatized from the entire experience, which leads to his ultimate fate.
