Jean Lousie Finch, aka Scout (Chapel Tinius), a young girl in a quiet 1935 southern town, is about to experience dramatic events that will affect the rest of her life. She and brother Jem (Noah Chambers) are being raised by their widower father Atticus (John Botts). A lawyer, Atticus explains that he's defending a young Negro, Tom Robinson (Antoine Rouse), wrongfully accused of a grave crime. Atticus fights his legal battle with a result that is part defeat, part triumph. Added to all this is the mysterious Boo Radley (Michael Ennis) who lives down the street and fascinates the siblings and their friend Dill (Jacoby Botts). The entire story is told in flashback by the grown Jean Louise (Sandy Roberts).
