It's June 1933. The rest of the United States seems to be falling to pieces, but in Little Wellington, Texas, the farmers, ranchers, and townspeople just want it to rain. They're also concerned about some strange events, like a luxury car cruising around at night without any lights. A child's ball that keeps appearing and disappearing all by itself. And then the outlaw couple Bonnie and Clyde pay a visit … with disastrous results. Can life ever go back to the way it was?
