Avery Ludlow (Brian Cox) is an old and reclusive man and lives with his 14-year-old dog, called ‘Red’. It’s a gift from Mary, his wife, for his 50th birthday. One day, while fishing at a lake, he comes across three boys – Danny (Noel Fisher), Harold (Kyle Gallner) and Pete Doust (Shiloh Fernandez). Danny threatens Avery to give them money. When they come to know that he has only 30 dollars, Danny becomes angry and shoots ‘Red’. Avery goes to a local gun store, where the clerk identifies Danny based on the shotgun he used. Avery meets Danny's father Micheal McCormack (Tom Sizemore) and tells him, what his son has done. Michael calls his sons and asks them if they shot ‘Red’. They deny the charge and Michael asks Avery to leave. Avery decides to file a lawsuit and talks to his lawyer, Sam Berry (Richard Reihle). Sam discourages him, but Avery persists. Sam arranges a meeting with a reporter called Carrie (Kim Dickens). Carrie advises him to take the story to the media. Avery gets convinced and gives an interview to Carrie. But the story fails to draw attention. Carrie asks Avery about his family. He tells her that his elder son was thrown out of Navy on the basis of mental illness. And, one day, he came back and asked Mary for money. She denied him and he beat Mary up. Later, thinking she’s dead, he then burnt his younger brother and Mary. The younger brother was burnt to death, but Mary survived for 5 days in coma before dying. Avery starts trailing the three boys. Harold feels sorry and apologizes for what has happened. But Avery tells him that he expects the same from Danny too. One day, while playing baseball Danny gets agitated with his game. And leaves the place in anger. Avery follows and parks behind Danny's car. Danny confronts Avery and tries to hit Avery. Avery fights back and tells him not to try something like that again. In response, Danny torches Avery’s Store to ashes. Avery goes to his lawyer and but is disappointed after hearing his what he has to say. Avery digs up ‘Red’ and caries it to the McCormack's house. Danny becomes furious and shoots Avery, hitting his ear. Avery snatches the gun from Danny and holds him hostage. Then he forces him to drive to the Sheriff’s office. Michael follows Avery and rams his truck and it flips upside down. Avery becomes unconscious. McCormacks return home assuming Avery is dead. After some time, Avery becomes conscious and sees a dog that shows him a revolver. He picks it and goes back to McCormack's home and asks for Red's body back. Harold takes Avery to Red’s body. Michael and Danny follow and Danny shoots Avery in stomach. Avery shoots back and hits Danny and Michael. Harold is also shot in the crossfire. Avery approaches Michael and tells him again what has been happened. At the end, Avery is reading a newspaper, which has published his story. Carrie comes and presents him a new dog. Avery doesn’t accept at first, but later he becomes happy and adopts the new dog.
