Frank the Barber

A world divided by war; a community united by hope. Christmas Eve 1943 and all is quiet on the home front. Whilst a world war rages overseas the city of Utica New York struggles to maintain a semblance of normality as its citizens pray for their loved ones fighting on foreign soil. Frank the Barber cornerstone of the community prides himself on two things; his ability to cut hair and to listen and in such troubling times everyone has a story to tell. A lawman and a vagabond. A shoeshine boy and a man of God. None are exempt from the turmoil of the world but on this special night a ray of hope shines upon the city giving each and every citizen hope for a brighter future as they recount their tales of tribulation and triumph.
