In 1935 rural Texas, recently widowed Edna Spaulding struggles to survive with two small children, a farm to run, and very little money in the bank - not to mention a deadly tornado and the unwelcome presence of the Ku Klux Klan. Edna is aided by her beautician sister, Margaret; a blind boarder, Mr. Will; and a would-be thief, Moze, who decides to teach Edna how to plant and harvest cotton.

"The movie 'Places in the Heart' is a historical drama focusing on survival, race relations, and economic hardship in 1930s Texas. There is no evidence provided that Christmas plays any role in the setting, plot, themes, or resolution of the narrative."
