Resting Place

A television movie set in Rockville, Georgia, in 1972. Major Kendall Laird, a Survival Assistance Officer, arrives in this sleepy little town with the body of Lieutenant Dwyte Johnson, a Vietnam war hero. It’s Laird’s job to help Johnson’s parents bury their son. But since the dead hero was black, his parents are turned away by the white racists who maintain the town’s “all-white” cemetery.
