Based on the short story by master storyteller Truman Capote and directed
by the creator of Children of a Lesser God, this is a tale for all ages of
true friendship and coming-of-age. Set in a small southern town in the post-war
summer of 1947, two best friends, Billy Bob and Preacher, have never met anyone
quite like their new neighbor Lily Jane and are determined to win her over.
The two battle for her attention and it is clear that they are on a collision
course with one another that could not only destroy their friendship but also
take the tiny town with them. Meanwhile, a smooth-talking show promoter (Tom
Arnold) comes to town and tries to con the locals out of their life savings.
The boys, Lily Jane and her best friend take it upon themselves to track down
and capture the crooked Mr. Quince and turn him in to the local authorities.
In the process of trying to outwit the con man and return the town’s
money and dignity, the kids are also reminded of the meaning of true friendship.
