Bequeathed an unexpected inheritance by his late grandfather, Midwestern transplant Paul Winters pursues his dream of producing a motion picture. Joining a struggling production in hope of kick-starting his career, Paul struggles to reconcile the Hollywood lifestyle he desires with the Christian upbringing he built his life around. As Paul attempts to navigate the industry, he finds himself simultaneously allied and opposed to many whose beliefs differ from his own, including a frighteningly competent studio executive, an aging producer searching for new-found glory, and Deshawn "DeNatural" Johnson, controversial rapper and current star of the film.
Careening through a vividly-detailed and constantly confronting Los Angeles, Under the Iron Sun explores how we bridge the gap between who we are, and who we want to be.
