At seventeen, Lucas has spent his life living in the shadow and pain cast by his older brother Russell, a gifted and fallen athlete who has chosen the mines and a debauched lifestyle over an education. Lucas emerging love for his life long neighbor, Heather McKenzie, is tested as they await the fate of their loved ones trapped in the mine.
