A popular religious leader is pushed to tragedy when he tries to confront an obsession with his mistress. In an urban city somewhere in America in 1977, violence, corruption, and repression have over-run the town, but the earnest Pastor Warrenthall Mitchell might be the one man capable of carrying the torch for the late Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.--if he doesn't self-destruct first. 'Lover' is a psychological drama involving an idealistic pastor, his unwieldy mistress, her vicious dog, and the pastor's most loyal supporter.
