Long Alabama Summer

Grandmother Jean Henderson is visiting the US from England to help her son with his new baby. But just moments after the taxi drops her in downtown Manhattan, she witnesses the brutal execution of a grocery store clerk. Shaken by the ordeal, she arrives at her son's apartment to find he and his heavily pregnant wife have vanished, owing a fortune to a violent loan shark.

Jean soon discovers the only way to guarantee the safe return of her son, and his unborn baby, is to raise the money to pay off his debt. Recruiting an army of invisible seniors, she devises an audacious plan to steal the cash and wreak revenge on the greedy Wall Street banks.

But the grocery store killer is stalking her through the streets of the Lower East Side, desperate to eliminate the only witness to see his face. Jean's stubborn refusal to return home until she's saved her son might prove to be the last decision she ever makes.
