Stockard Channing narrates this inspiring story adapted from Leo Tolstoy's tale "Truths We Live By." Simon the shoemaker barely makes enough to get by, but that doesn't stop the kind cobbler from taking in a needy homeless man named Michael. Simon provides Michael with food, shelter and a job as his assistant. Mysteries unfold, relationships strengthen and new purpose is found as Simon slowly unravels the details of Michael's life.
