Produktbeschreibung
A young Liverpudlian sets out on a determined quest for a better life in The Promised Land, landing in a small township in southern Ontario, Canada, where he resolutely seeks to fulfil that promise. The beginning presents a stark reality. Will he rise to the occasion, or will obstacles thwart his plans? He quickly realizes that immediate job opportunities are scarce and that unemployment benefits are unavailable for newcomers, forcing him into a relentless hunt for work. At a shoe store, a young female customer glares at him with indignation. 'My mother asked for pumps,' she declares angrily. 'These are running shoes, not high heels!' Even as he navigates the challenges of his new life, new acquaintances invite him to a lakeside retreat for a much-needed break. But unexpected dangers arise when friends yell, 'WATER MOCCASIN!' Suddenly, one friend is bleeding. 'Those crazy bastards punched me!' he shouts. 'Let's take them on!' another responds. An old white van screeches out of the parking lot, igniting a furious chase. He understands that mastering his situation is critical. Will this tumultuous journey end in disaster? He plunges headlong toward the final scene of this turbulent journey.
