In 1983, the Korean immigrant Yi family moves from California to a plot of land in Arkansas, where the father, Jacob, believes the soil is fertile and hopes to grow Korean produce to sell to vendors in Dallas. One of his first decisions is to decline the services of a water diviner; he digs a well in a spot he chooses himself. He enlists the help of Paul, an eccentric Korean War veteran. Jacob is optimistic, but his wife, Monica, is disappointed with the mobile home and the distance from urban amenities, especially a hospital for David. The parents worry about their son David's heart condition, monitoring his heartbeat and frequently telling him not to run. The couple work sexing chicks at the nearby hatchery and argue constantly while David and his sister, Anne, eavesdrop.
