When he discovers that a Native American Casino is about to be built over the town's historic battlefield, Chase Revere, the self-appointed protector of a small town's rather meager place in American history, decides to launch an all-out offensive against the project. Along the way, he earns the wrath of the entire town -- whose well-meaning but short-sighted citizens believe that the casino will save their decaying local community - as well as gets an education about hope, heartbreak and how American history is really written.
