About

In a North Dakota oil town, a woman on probation and her estranged sister consider illegal border runs to keep a family home from foreclosure.

In a North Dakota oil town, Ollie Hale (Tessa Thompson) is nearing the end of probation after being caught crossing illegally between North Dakota and Canada. With eight days left, she has applied for work in Spokane and takes odd jobs for nearby construction workers, while chances to sell prescription medicine and take more border work keep coming her way. Her sister Deb (Lily James), a single mother to Johnny who lives in an illegally parked trailer, has grown apart from Ollie and asks her for help. Ollie offers to sign over their mother's house to Deb, but the property is facing foreclosure.
