The Grace of Jake
The Grace of Jake
Ex-inmate and musician Jake Haynes (Jake La Botz – True Detective, Rambo) steals a car and travels to rural Arkansas.
Hell bent on exacting revenge on his father Henry (Michael Beck – Warriors, Xanadu), who abandoned him, but his plan begins to unravel as he discovers a complicated family history among the cotton fields and gospel churches.
Through the help of locals like Alvah (Lew Temple – Walking Dead, Lawless) and Maurice (Ravi Kapoor- The Brink, Crossing Jordan) and finally through a forbidden romance with Nicole (Jordin Sparks – American Idol, Sparkle), he comes to understand the complexities of family and the virtue of forgiveness.
