In Northeastern Pennsylvania, the scars of coal mining lie in black fields and mounds of waste coal called culm. And the people who carry the scars of heartbreak and desperation during one Christmas season find hope in the strange and the supernatural:
A young girl and her mother attempting to flee an abusive father find help in the form a mysterious abandoned semi-trailer.
A lonely young mailman who delivers mail to a strange, isolated cottage and who feels his life has been a complete failure receives a letter from his long-dead parents.
And a retired woman contemplating life after losing her husband and living alone awakens one morning to find a black train sitting on abandoned railroad tracks behind her house, waiting for her to take the next step.
