The film immediately draws you in with a shocking injustice. Samuel Murphy (Ethan Hawke), a hardworking widower, and his young daughter, Penny, are unexpectedly evicted and then harassed by police while searching for a new home. Tragically, Penny is taken into custody, and Murphy is sent to a harsh work camp run by Warden Clancy (Russell Crowe), a man who loves baseball but enjoys exerting control. Murphy, a skilled mechanic and war veteran, quickly impresses Clancy with his strength and work ethic. He has six months left on his sentence, but Penny will become a ward of the state in just one month. Seeing Murphy’s situation, Clancy makes him an offer: transport three inmates and a shipment of gold across 50 miles of dangerous terrain, and Clancy will secure his immediate release. But if even one gold bar is lost, both Murphy and the inmates will face deadly consequences.
