Home Drama Home, Sweet Home

After leaving home and falling into misery, composer John Howard Payne writes the song "Home, Sweet Home." In an episodic series of stories, the melody's power is revealed. It inspires a young wife to stay with her husband, convinces a man to return to his first love, and gives a grief stricken widow hope after her sons kill one another in a feud. The song ultimately becomes a symbol of redemption and the enduring strength of family and home.
