Maine Congressman Charlie Winship is having a rough day. After a video surfaces of him sitting during the pledge of allegiance, he ends up punching a fellow House member, dealing with his irate ex-wife, and being criticized by the media for disrespecting a deeply valued American tradition. As his situation worsens, Charlie sets off to a secluded island in the Atlantic, where the quirky locals are engaged in a conflict over fishing territories. Treat Williams stars as The Congressman in this comedic and poignant film that explores the significant question of American identity.
