A drama that follows the fictional life of Samuel Hunter whose faith is challenged when he joins the LDS church for the woman he loves and follows her along the ill-fated journey of Martin Handcart Company in 1856. The trek of the Martin Handcart Company to the Salt Lake valley is historically known as one of the most tragic events of western migration. Over 150 men, women and children died of cold and starvation after escaping persecution in Iowa City and leaving too late in the season in Nebraska, only to encounter a very cold and early Wyoming winter.
