This heartfelt journey of mishaps follows Erwin (Rudy Pankow), a Harvard dropout turned struggling actor who winds up stranded in the heart of Texas oil country — and stumbles into the role of a lifetime. When nearly bankrupt oil driller Merle (Oscar® nominee Thomas Haden Church) asks Erwin to pose as his "land man" to help save his business, and local waitress Faye (Carrie-Ann Moss) joins their David vs. Goliath battle for land and oil rights, the race against repo time begins. When it comes to a small business versus a big bank, can "Fake it 'til you make it" win the day?
