    After years in prison, convict Lee Umstetter (Nick Nolte) unearths a talent for playwriting and assembles a theater troupe of fellow inmates. Once free, he guides this unlikely band of ex-cons on a daring nationwide tour, confronting doubt, obstacles, and the deep yearning for redemption as they perform against all odds beyond the confines of their past.
