The small Arizona town of Atonement prides itself on being unique. There are no police or government there, but each citizen must agree that if they do anything wrong, the rest of the population votes on their guilt and punishment. Three young boys commit a heinous crime in 1927, and now 50 years later, they must complete the atonement for their deeds. The pulpit-pounding preacher, Reverend Clayton, leads the way and the town will never be the same again!
