The embers of violence is an American film, which takes place in Iowa, and is concerned with the resolution of a barn fire series.
Action
In Iowa, one after another burn several barns in one night. An investigator is fresh from the city to the country, would, as they must also accept that even Amish come as a perpetrator in question, live with them and win the trust of a widow. This widow has two children, almost adult age. She notes that her daughter is still seeing a boy whose father is banned for a banned in the community barn construction and the son has a relationship with a " flighty " girl from American society.
After some back and forth, it burns once a barn, it turns out that the son of the accursed thing, put out the fire. The sequence of scenes is here a little spun: admonished the prosecutor, the boy reveals his act on his knees towards his fellow Amish and finally hintan went to the court with a wagon train.
More interesting than the plot that is simple knitted, is the ratio of the prosecutor to the Amish Widow: The two become friends, the friendship suffers a fracture through the concealed knowledge of the prosecutor about the forbidden friendships of children and is cemented again.
