Plot

Seething with familial conflicts and yearnings, Three Priests offers a powerful journey. Dustin and Joe are brothers who are as different as can be: one a confident ladies man and the other shy and insecure. Their parents, retired sheriff Jake (Michael Parks of Kill Bill) and his wife, Rachel (Olivia Hussey of Romeo and Juliet) have worked hard to carve out a quiet and safe life for themselves and their family. When Abby, the daughter of Jake's best friend Ben (Wes Studi of Dances With Wolves), returns to town for the summer, their lives are disrupted and events set in motion that lead to unimaginable consequences. As brother is turned against brother in a fight for Abby's affection; the town is threatened by out of control wildfires; and all the while Jake and his wife are forced to make a desperate decision that will determine the fate of themselves and their sons. Packed with top performances, Three Priests is an intense and ultimately heart-wrenching story about loyalty and betrayal, fear and desire, envy and honor, and the fierceness of a mother's love.
