The Mule

The Mule

90-year-old World War II veteran Earl Stone has almost nothing after such a long time in his life. The husband has always put his work much higher than his family - as a result, nothing is good with his wife, and the children have almost forgotten about the existence of the old man. And the business, in which Earl invested so much for so long, will soon close. Very unexpectedly, the old man was offered a simple job for which they will pay a lot - all you need to do is drive a car. It is difficult to refuse such offers, so Earl agreed. But he didn't know what exactly he was going to transport - that's how the 90-year-old man became a drug courier. Earl puts his life at risk every day, and questions his freedom, because he is already being watched by the Drug Enforcement Agency. Read more The film is based on real events.
