How does one forgive?

while looking for music, I found that the film SmokeSignals was on line. Link HERE. but the sound is a bit low.

It is from a book by Sherman Alexie, about the relationship between a boy and his father, and unlike most films it was done by Native Americans. The father is destroyed because he started a fire accidentally that killed his best friend. Later, he leaves and dies elsewhere, but his son goes to bring home his ashes.

Depressing subject? Yes, but full of Humor: John wayne's teeth...



This is the climax, about how one forgives one's father. But although the poem does summarize the story, it is not actually in the book, but by Dick Lourie
