In Zebulon County, Iowa, Larry Cook decides to divide his land among his three daughters, triggering a series of events that disrupt the apparent tranquility of the place. As Larry begins to show signs of dementia and becomes more violent, the Cook sisters struggle with feelings of revenge, jealousy, and hatred, while a metaphorical and literal poison plagues their lands. This Shakespearean tragedy, adapted into film, explores the depths of family relationships and the dark secrets that can be hidden beneath the surface.
