 Heartless Journey         Transpose The Orchestrator

Heartless Journey

Synopsis:
They say it was the strongest storm anyone has seen within the last ten years. Winds have uprooted trees. Rain has drenched highways and flooded roads. Lightening has struck houses and destroyed homes. and yet, in the midst of this frightful storm, two families will be forever changed. Everybody all over sought after low covering to protect themselves from the thunders and lightenings, but not Jack Stone and Hal Holloway, they had other reasons to be in the mist of it all. For three days, the angry storm rages against the city and rests over St. Marys Hospital. and coincidentally Jack and Hal both arrived there on May 15th 2011, at 7:48p.m. Placed in adjacent rooms and separated by a thin wall, Jack and Hal bare witness to each others pain as their lives unravel and the storm outside of the hospital continues to rage. In just three days time, Jack and Hal form an unlikely friendship as they experience matters of life, death, doubt and faith. They could not see each other, but they can hear everything. Even though the storm bore much weight Jack Stone had to get there because his daughter Snow passed out at her piano recital and stopped breathing. Hal Holloway had to get there because his wife Scarlet was on the verge of baring their first child. Come witness a story like none other.They say every decision breeds a consequence. Watch how a man's past dictates his present and ultimately alternate his future. When a man is truly down to nothing, nobody to love, nobody to look to, nobody to find comfort in, then who does he trust? Three days time, right beside each other, Jack and Hal never met, never seen each other, but they need one another. Sometimes everything you longed for is right beside you. To the trained eye it would seem ironic how the story paned out, but for others who can look deeper can see much more. There was no accident to the madness, this sequence was not in vain, somebody had to orchestrate this.
