A proud widow. A frightened homeless kid. Nobody cared about them until they cared enough to fight for each other.
A poor, elderly white woman living in a tenement in a black ghetto is befriended by a neighborhood boy, and the two of them form a mutually beneficial relationship: he provides her companionship and protection, and she becomes the mother he never had.
