J.D. Vance, een voormalige marinier uit zuid-Ohio die aan de Yale-universiteit rechten studeert, krijgt een droombaan aangeboden maar wordt door een familiecrisis gedwongen om terug te keren naar de plaats waar hij opgroeide en die hij het liefst wil vergeten. J.D. wordt geconfronteerd met de ingewikkelde dynamiek in zijn familie in Appalachia, waaronder zijn explosieve relatie met zijn verslaafde moeder Bev. Door de herinneringen aan zijn oma Mamaw, de veerkrachtige, slimme vrouw die hem opvoedde, realiseert J.D. zich echter hoezeer zijn familie zijn eigen levenstraject positief heeft beïnvloed.
Ja! de film Hillbilly Elegy is nu beschikbaar om te kijken op Netflix in Nederland.
