The Second Son, a tale of unrequited love, takes you back to Canada in the 50's, capturing the charm and the joy of small town life along with the turmoil that bubbles beneath the surface. Two brothers, Andrew and Michel, seem to be living a storybook life in a small town -- until they both fall in love with the girl next door. Then, one perfect summer's day, an innocent picnic takes a surprising and unexpected turn for the three of them. The two young boys are caught in an unthinkable situation, brothers different as night and day vying for their mother's heart. Is there anything a boy wouldn't do for his mother's love? Does he need to earn it, or should it be unconditional? And if the love he wants isn't there, does the heart of a child break, or just bend? Then comes the hate, to fill in the cracks that love has left behind -- and the final outcome of that fateful summer's day is played out years later in their mother's kitchen in a riveting conclusion to this intense drama.
