Synopsis by Jason Buchanan
A former professional football player abandons his family after a series of disheartening career setbacks, only to discover the power of forgiveness after losing his father. When Walter Clemens' (Eriq La Salle) dreams came crashing down, he couldn't bear the thought of disappointing his family. Shortly thereafter, Walter's father dies, devastating the family as they come together for the reading of his will. No one expected to see Walter there, and at first his presence only serves to reopen old wounds. The full impact of his actions finally setting in, Walter embraces his faith and begins taking the first steps toward reuniting his fractured family.
