After being released from prison, a young woman named Percy looks for a new beginning. She finds it in the rural town of Gilead, Maine where she is taken under the wing of the owner of the Spitfire Grill. This clannish town is wary of outsiders, especially those like Percy who seems to be able to see right through people. Winner of an audience award at Sundance, this overlooked film examines the meaning of redemption.
