You Went Away

It's 1942, a time when anything is possible - though everything seems impossible. A dashing, romantic young R.C.A.F. pilot captures the searching hearts of a married woman and her eleven-year-old son - while her philandering, hard-drinking husband jeopardizes his own Air Force career. This is the home front, where war can offer hope for reconciliation, for the possibility of forgiveness, even after loss and betrayal. It is a time defined by laughter and sudden death - a time that tests a couple's love and a family's bonds. A story as only Timothy Findley could tell, You Went Away is a poignant, lyrical tale, rich with imagery and animated by unforgettable characters.
