When the levees broke in New Orleans, the Rev. Jerry Kramer scrambled to get his family out alive. Hurricanes Katrina and Rita destroyed their tiny house, but within days, Kramer, pastor of the Free Church of the Annunciation, was wading through the filthy floodwaters to help others.

The accident, poorly shot and hardly believable, results from an ongoing skirmish between islander fishermen and mainland fishermen. After serving his five-year sentence, Cole returns to the island, determined to painstakingly rebuild the life he once had. Shot on location, the film offers a glimpse into the world of lobster fishing, and its portrait of the Maine island lifestyle distinguishes the film from typical down-on-your luck productions.
