The potboiler concerns a reporter (Matthew McConaughey) and his brother (Zac Efron) who returns to their Florida hometown to investigate a case involving a death row inmate (John Cusack) who may be wrongly convicted of murdering a sheriff. Kidman plays a woman who writes letters to death row inmates, and who first brings the case to the attention of the press.
