In the movie Red Wing, Glen Powell plays a troubled young man named John, who is on a path of self-destruction. John has recently lost his mother and his girlfriend and is struggling to come to terms with his feelings of grief and anger. His father, Jim (played by Bill Paxton), a successful businessman and athlete, is at a loss as to how to help his son and decides to send him to his childhood town of Red Wing, Minnesota to learn the value of hard work and discipline by working on the family farm.
John arrives in Red Wing, a small town with a population of less than 500 people, and quickly meets a cast of characters who will change his life forever. He becomes fast friends with Bob (played by Luke Perry), a local farmer who is also dealing with his own struggles. Bob takes John under his wing and introduces him to a community of people who live their lives with purpose and meaning. John learns the value of hard work and the satisfaction of a job well done.
As he works on the farm, John also becomes involved with a young woman named Rachel (played by Frances Fisher), who works at the local diner.

However, their relationship is full of ups and downs as John struggles to come to terms with his feelings and his past.
