Part 2/8:
In Florida, amidst the struggles of a traveling circus facing financial difficulties, we find siblings Joe and Millie eagerly awaiting the return of their father, Holt Farrier, a war veteran who is reunited with them, but not without the traumatic loss of an arm from battle. As they come together as a family, Holt reluctantly takes a job caring for the circus elephants, despite his lingering grief over the recent loss of his wife, Annie.
