Every
family wrestles with its own myths.
In RAIN IN THE HOLLOWS a journalist returns to
his native West Virginia hollow to confront his
larger-than-life brother whose legendary deeds
are accompanied by a maddening disregard for rules,
laws, or the consequences for his struggling family.
How can the journalist and his family reconcile
themselves to someone who may be a saint,
a sinner, a madman, or all of these?
