An account of one of the most notorious examples of the unwarranted use of federal force in the history of the United States, THE SIEGE AT RUBY RIDGE stars Randy Quaid as Randy Weaver and Laura Dern as his wife, Vicki. Weaver, a white supremacist who owned a large number of guns, many of which the government believed he obtained illegally, had been under federal surveillance for some time when, on August 22, 1992 the FBI decided to serve him with an arrest warrant.
