The head of a decent American family (Viggo Mortensen), a loving husband and father of two children, kills a man in his restaurant. The killing looks like self-defense during a robbery attempt, but is it? After this event, the family falls into the center of national attention. However, this story also has a "side effect" that changes their lives forever: the head of the family, who has become a national hero, attracts the attention of vile types. They seem to recognize him as an old acquaintance whom they lost track of many years ago...
