1865: The American Civil War is over. Some, though, can't accept the outcome.
With nowhere to call home, displaced Northern veterans Arthur Bayles and Lowell Fischer seek refuge in Kansas City.
Having lost everything to the war, the two best friends decide they need to leave their devastated hometown in the north to start over.
Captain Halsey Withers, a bitter Confederate veteran, isn't too pleased to have two robust northerners waltzing around in his neck of the woods. A deep-rooted hatred for all things of the north, Halsey Withers and his son, Freddie, set about to make life as difficult as they can for Arthur and Lowell. Many in town share their sentiments.
Tensions run deep and hostilities flare.
Will the townsfolk continue living under the near tyrannical, self-imposed rule of the old war veteran or cast aside their differences and side with Arthur and Lowell?
