Here's what he has shared with The Icon about the project:
Title: "Stranger"
Tagline: The world's getting smaller and stranger.
Description: On a depression-era farm, a poor white family discovers a wounded black man on their porch and takes him in. They rush to discover who he is, why he has a gun, and what to do about him.
