Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

A painful childhood still haunts Dan Donahue (Thom Mathews), the man at the heart of this moving drama inspired by real events. He is prepared to get married, but he can't move past the absence of his father. Writing a letter to the man proves to be a catharsis, but the real revelation occurs when Dan and his long-missing father (John Ashton) finally reunite. Will forgiveness and redemption triumph, or is Dan doomed to spend his life consumed by pain? ~ Kimber Myers, Rovi
