In Willy, a father and son grapple with each other, and, in the process, a richly compact narrative emerges: a rebellious son leaves his ancestral home to find adventure among strangers and lose tradition and family along the way. Their respective stories define what is lost and what is gained in the immigrant passage to the new world.
Willy presents an intergenerational combative relationship which has been lifted wholesale from Europe to America, with the same contentious features in play. The dual narrative of father and son, deriving from literalist observance and heterodox dissent respectively, obtains with equal force on both sides of the Atlantic.
