Harry Stephens (Michael Reinero) stands at the twilight of his life, watching his last few relationships slip like sand through his fingers. After the loss of his wife Clair (Christina Marie), Harry sees his estranged son Richard (Colby Salmon) starting down the same path he once took, and tries to find redemption before it's too late for both of them. Cat's in the Cradle is a moving story about the life of a family, inspired by Harry Chapin's 1974 hit song.
