A true love story about murder, friendship, betrayal and family. Dr. Andrew Bagby was murdered by Dr. Shirley Turner, the mother of his unborn child. Childhood friend and filmmaker Kurt Kuenne set out to make this film for Bagby’s son, Zachary, as a way to introduce him to his father. Meanwhile Andrew’s parents, David and Kate Bagby, embark on a new life in Newfoundland to be closer to their grandson. Just when it appears that they might prevail over almost insurmountable legal hurdles, something unimaginable happens. An unforgettable story.
David and Kate Bagby will be in attendance.
