On a cold February night in 2007, a devoted father of four and a seventeen-year-old drunk driver both receive life sentences. In one violent, devastating instant, each faces a drastically different and uncertain future. But as Chris Williams sits in his demolished vehicle staring at the car that had just caused the death of his wife, his unborn baby, and his nine- year-old daughter and his eleven-year-old son, he commits to doing something extraordinary: to forgive. Chris’ story is the cinematic tale of how a person can forgive despite the retaliatory tendencies that surface within the darks corners of the human heart showing the world that hope, love and forgiveness can overcome all when you make the decision to just let it go.
