Premise



A mother and their two children, an older sister and a younger brother, witness how a man shoots their husband and father. The traumatized boy does not speak ever since. The children grow up and the girl becomes a beautiful young woman, who attracts the attention of some local men. One of them, the son of the man who killed her father, rapes her at a pool in the mountains, while at their home the boy finds that their mother has died in her bed. A while later, the men come to the house of the children and one of them rapes the girl again. After they find that a social worker makes inquiries about the girl at the local post office, where the girl collected welfare instead of her deceased mother, the men come to the house with rifles, apparently to kill the girl and boy. After a hunt, in which one of the men falls to his death, and another is killed by his friend, the father kills his son right before he would shoot the girl. He then offers the girl his rifle to shoot him, but she refuses to do so.
