What Is Flashback About?

The premise of Flashback without spoilers.

A hippie radical, Huey Walker, has spent decades on the run after being blamed for a crime he may not have committed. When finally captured, the uptight young FBI agent John Buckner escorts him to trial. Though they seem opposite, Buckner discovers common ground with Walker, a truth that matters when they face a menacing small‑town sheriff.
