In this semidocumentary, an Alabama town is run by a crime syndicate that's grown fat on prostitution and crooked gambling, directed at soldiers from Fort Benning across the river.

The syndicate responds with escalating violence: is no one safe? Credits preceded by a "newscast" containing spoilers.
