Amber Waves (1980)

Two men. One losing hope, the other searching for it. Together they would harvest a life-long friendship.

A drifter stranded in Kansas accepts a job offer from a wheat harvester who, in desperation over his cancer and financial woes, attempts suicide but becomes a father-figure to the young man.
