The Harvest is described as follows: "In the basement of a small evangelical church in Southeastern Idaho, a group of young missionaries is preparing to go to the Middle East. One of them — a young man (Kendall) who has recently lost his father — has bought a one-way ticket. But his plans are complicated when his estranged sister (Karpel) returns home and makes it her mission to keep him there."
