Joe Talbert is trying to escape his past and make a new life for himself, away from his abusive, alcoholic mother who constantly pulls him back to care for his autistic younger brother when she goes on a bender. A college assignment has Joe writing a biography of a stranger, but a visit to a local nursing home pairs him with Carl Iverson, a former Vietnam vet who is dying of cancer and a convicted murderer. Through their conversations, Joe learns Carl may be innocent of this crime and sets out to clear his name but in the process, he may be putting himself and those he loves in danger.
