In 1967, a young boy found himself entranced as California’s Governor Ronald Reagan launched into a vehement tirade against the environmental movement. This moment would prove pivotal for Dylan Riggs, a logger grappling with the pressure to support his sick wife while battling the rising tide of environmental activism. Faced with a determined group of tree-hugging protesters refusing to allow him to clear the forest, tensions boiled over, leading to a dramatic confrontation. In a fit of frustration, the boy unleashed his anger on one of the activists using a chainsaw, resulting in his subsequent admission to a mental institution.
