In a small Illinois town in 1957, a coal mine shutdown leaves Walker without a job. He's struggling to provide for his two daughters, Sarah and Beth, who are being raised by Lou Ann, a waitress. Walker's a loving father, but his flaws, including drinking and womanizing, make it difficult for him to be a good parent. When Lou Ann demands $5000 to attend nursing school, Walker turns to an unlikely solution: dog fighting. His dog, Brute, is trained to fight, but the risks are high, and the consequences of getting caught are severe. Will Walker find a way to get his daughters back, and will Brute survive the grueling world of dog fighting?
