Bullitt County

Ten years ago, a group of four college friends embarked on an adventurous journey along the Bluegrass Bourbon Trail, excited to visit their beloved Kentucky distilleries. However, this thrilling adventure took a sinister turn when a tragic event occurred, leaving a lasting impact that would haunt them for years to come. Fast forward to 1977, the friends reconvene to celebrate Gordie’s upcoming nuptials. Keaton, his best man, proposes a nostalgic trip back to their youthful days by completing the Bourbon Trail once more.

With encouragement from Robin and Wayne, Keaton devises a scheme to kidnap Gordie and whisk him back to their former playground in Red River, KY. However, a decade has altered both the town and the dynamics of their friendship. Since the dark incident in college, Gordie’s journey has been particularly turbulent; grappling with their shared secret and the scars left by his time in Vietnam, he succumbed to alcohol, only recently managing to reclaim his life. Unfortunately, he is far from prepared for a tour of distilleries.

Just when Gordie thinks he might escape this trip, he hears whispers about the Bullitt Treasure—hidden Prohibition-era money stashed in the forests of Bullitt County, fiercely guarded by the Bullitt Family. Eager to dodge the Bourbon Trail activities, Gordie invokes his groom status, leading the friends away from distilleries and into a treasure hunt in the wilderness. What begins as a lighthearted excuse to gather around a campfire, indulging in drinks, smoke, and fond memories, swiftly spirals into chaos.

As they dig deeper into the woods, the atmosphere grows increasingly heavy. The reunion begins to unravel Gordie’s carefully constructed facade, forcing the buried secret that binds them to resurface in drastic and impactful ways. The revelations threaten to drive a wedge between them, pushing the friendships to the brink of destruction. It’s a journey that challenges the essence of their bond and unearths truths far more dangerous than the treasure they seek.
