The story is about the life and times of one Daniel Plainview, who transforms himself from silver miner raising a son on his own into a oil tycoon. When Plainview gets a mysterious tip-off that there's a little town out West where an ocean of oil is oozing out of the ground, he heads with his son, H.W., to Little Boston.In this town, where the excitement centers around the church of charismatic preacher Eli Sunday, Plainview and H.W. make their lucky strike. But even as the well raises all of their fortunes, nothing will remain the same as conflicts escalate and human value is destroyed by corruption and the flow of oil.
