Billy 1932

After a few years of trying to scrape up enough food to feed himself Billy realizes that his decision was a mistake. Freezing in the winter and suffering in the heat of the summer months. Billy wishes that he could escape into the place he had hoped to find. There was no utopia and his faith had become a lost dream. Riding on the top of a moving boxcar, Billy is suddenly pushed off and the fall causes serious injuries. He meets Matilda who takes pity on him and nurses him back to health, changing his life forever.
