In a fictional small town in western Canaan, Texas, there is something that might be perfect for everyone. There everyone believes in football as a way of life. Winning is considered a life and loss is not an option for everyone. Midfielder Lens Harbor will suffer a serious injury, and another player, John Moxon, will be chosen to lead the team in Texas to win the championship or else it will not be simple.

...someone could make a very interesting, nuanced film about the exalted place that high school football holds in some parts of Texas... this isn't that film.
