Description:
In the woods of North Carolina circa 1920, a mysterious traveller, the Photographer (Wentworth Miller), rides into a small town advertising his services as a photorapher of the dead.
The Photographer immortalizes the recently deceased wife of a local bootlegger, named Miller (Dermot Mulroney), who grows suspicious of the traveller's macabre demeanor when he sees him talking alone with his daughters Sarah (10) and Sadie (13). Fears of his twisted motives are realized when, just after Miller is arrested by roaming federal agents for bootlegging, Miller's daughter Sadie disappears.
Miller escapes the feds, but has to go under
In the woods of North Carolina circa 1920, a mysterious traveller, the Photographer (Wentworth Miller), rides into a small town advertising his services as a photorapher of the dead.
The Photographer immortalizes the recently deceased wife of a local bootlegger, named Miller (Dermot Mulroney), who grows suspicious of the traveller's macabre demeanor when he sees him talking alone with his daughters Sarah (10) and Sadie (13). Fears of his twisted motives are realized when, just after Miller is arrested by roaming federal agents for bootlegging, Miller's daughter Sadie disappears.
Miller escapes the feds, but has to go undercover to find his daughter, turning to his local bootlegger community for help and to Hannah (Melissa Leo), a sharp-eyed herbalist and outcast. Together they fight with the prejudices and petty politics of the local sheriff's office, a snake handling preacher, and heavy-handed feds to free Sadie from The Photographer's dark obsessions.
