When the last factory in a small Rust Belt town closes its doors, an unlikely hero emerges in Allery – a career employee of the factory. As an aging man, he can’t reconcile how to live a life simply doing nothing, and against the advice and pleas of his wife, he forms an unlikely friendship with his charismatic neighbor in order to revive the defunct factory. As their community rallies around them – and as their former corporate bosses strategize how to implode this unexpected movement – Allery learns that he might be something he never thought possible: a leader.
