Set among the cane fields of rural Louisiana, Burning Cane follows a deeply religious mother struggling to reconcile her convictions of faith with the love she has for her troubled son.
"There are a lot of arty, slice-of-life dramas out there, but where those fail, Burning Cane shines. It's one thing for a film to realistically portray rural poverty, but it's quite another for it to create fully realized characters with intertwining storylines."
