In a lawless, Godless, nameless county, money is tight, the slots are bright, and weary citizens find themselves willing to do anything to survive. Richie, a down-on-his-luck screw up, longs to be free of the demons of his past. When his career criminal father, Frank, receives a dementia diagnosis, Richie realizes that he is now in a race against time. In order to pay off his crushing gambling debt. Together, they plan a series of reckless heists that puts Frank’s criminal expertise to use before his mind is gone for good.
