Description:Seventeen year-old Larry Kinsella knows nothing of life beyond the city of Vancouver and when he first meets Benita Pigeon, a member of the Carrier Nation, he is drawn to her by their differences. Their brief, often tumultuous, relationship is brought to a calamitous end by an unwanted pregnancy and by Larry’s response to it.

Set in the middle of the last century against a backdrop of northern British Columbia and the Downtown Eastside of Vancouver, “Back To Hope” is a story that often touches on violence, conflict, poverty, and despair.
