WARFIELD SYNOPSIS:
Dan is released from prison and attempts to reconnect with his two adult daughters. Being that he was put away for raising them in a crack house, among other atrocities, his daughters are immediately divided on whether or not Dan is the changed man he says he is. Meanwhile, he begins dating a woman who knows nothing of his past, and struggles to resist the urge to slip into his old ways as he spends more and more time with the woman's young daughter. Tensions rise as Dan keeps his daughters unaware of this woman, and vice versa, until the two worlds collide during a chance encounter in a park. WARFIELD portrays the difficulties and necessities of forgiveness, and marks debut filmmaker Mira Gibson's exceptional ability to write and direct great roles for women; as WARFIELD is the story of how one man's past effects the lives of four women spanning multiple generations.
