"Redemption" traces the journey a guilt-ridden Alzheimer’s sufferer driven to help his estranged son, desperate to finally share the shameful secret at the heart of a family tragedy, before it's too late. THE BOY. Far out to sea. Sudden, rogue waves on the horizon. The sight stunned Freddy Horncastle, just waking. Wait – could that be Tommy, their youngest? Where was his wife; the lifeguards, other beachgoers? Had everyone left? Freddy later swore to police that he never saw a boy in the water, never tried to signal, get help. There were no other witnesses close by. When the waves hit, he prayed his family was safe. Their beach stuff was gone, swept away. 23 years later, Freddy is unable - or unwilling - to help Tommy, face Tommy, and come clean, accept the blame, admit his cowardice on that awful day and every day since. The fact was, he froze. Recently, something’s been wrong with Freddy’s mind: a profound confusion. When he learns what this means, he knows there can be no more excuses. It’s time to find Tommy and tell him the truth, before it’s too late.
