62-year-old Louis Roubieu sees his family's long-awaited prosperity as a reward rained upon him by God for years of arduous toil on the land. Yet it is the very abundance of God's rain, initially observed from the window of their farmhouse, that comes to pose a threat to not merely their livelihood, but their very lives.
