Dean Stockwell takes an associate producer credit as well as the lead in this explosive look at familial bonding and male pride. Retreating to a mountain cabin to repair his relationship with his son (Robert Keith), Stockwell finds himself having to confront not only his other son's homosexuality (a powerful performance by Jason Behr), but also the fact that Behr is caught up with the mysterious James Remar and his fractious buddy, Jaimz Woolvett. Very much written as an actors' showcase, Victor Salva's drama has the intensity and constraint of a stage play and as a result much of its impact is lost on the small screen.

A father and his two sons go on holiday together hoping to reconcile some of their differences, but when the arrival of two escaped convicts interrupts their vacation, the three men must cooperate in order to survive.
