American Gun Plot
This indie drama interweaves three stories, all of which involve the
proliferation of firearms in American society. A gun-store owner
(Sutherland) invites his college student daughter (Cardellini) to spend a
summer working in the family business. Meanwhile, a single mom (Gay Harden)
worries that her son may follow in the footsteps of his older brother, who
killed himself after shooting up his school. In Chicago, a principal
(Whitaker) struggles to keep his inner-city school free of guns.
