Upon apprehension of the real criminal he is released, only to face the stigma of jail time as he reenters society in the tiny town of Tecumseh, Mich.
He seeks redemption through his ailing father who is affected with Alzheimer’s disease, along with an endearing little boy and a stray dog. The story reveals that miracles are never far away, especially when one is needed.
Refreshments will be served during a brief intermission.
