WHO'S WHO


SYNOPSIS
Attorney Jennifer Sole has volunteered to represent environmental terrorist Jason Keely, who’s Northern Territory extremist organization has attacked the factory of Southern business owner Ryan Jones. As she faces off against prosecuting attorney William King, the two find themselves forming a bond now practically forbidden in the new political landscape of the United Territories of America. Set in the possibly not-so-distant future, In the Middle explores what America might look like if its ruling powers gave over to the extremism that often dictates our public discourse. In this new system, the government itself is strictly neutral, but assigns each of its citizens a home within the city and state that perfectly aligns with their specific beliefs and practices.
