SYNOPSIS: In 2000, Joel Smith is a cocky, adventurous young man who sees the 
world as his playground. But when the college senior, days from graduation, 
enters an abandoned Montana mine, he discovers the price of reckless 
curiosity. He emerges in May 1941 with a cell phone he can't use, money he 
can't spend, and little but his wits to guide his way. Stuck in the age of 
Whirlaway, swing dancing, and a peacetime draft, Joel begins a new life as the 
nation drifts toward war. With the help of his 21-year-old trailblazing 
grandmother and her friends, he finds his place in a world he knew only from 
movies and books. But when an opportunity comes to return to the present, Joel 
must decide whether to leave his new love in the past or choose a course that 
will alter their lives forever. THE MINE follows a humbled man through a 
critical time in history as he adjusts to new surroundings and wrestles with 
the knowledge of things to come.
