    WOW. Really enjoyed this film!

    My eyes were glued to the screen the whole time! This film I found very impressive keeping it in one location the whole time, I wasn't sure what to expect because of that but I absolutely loved it! This film has inspired me so much. With its simple production/set design and having only a few actors, it made me motivated to create something realistic for my own film production level of knowledge. For those who haven't watched it, make it a priority! You won't regret it:)

    Not what I expected. Totally surprised and inspired

    It's compelling, heart rending, funny and sad. Dynamically directed and produced, exquisitely acted, and thoughtfully, precisely, passionately and inventively written. it doesn't hit you over the head with "religion" but opens the door for deeper thoughts on deeper meanings and our common depravities. Kudos and bravo to the creators.

    Thought provoking interesting conflict

    Every thing about this film pulls you in and invests you in the characters and what they are talking about. At times you side with both characters. Fantastic my acting and very immersive!

    Beautiful look into struggles of faith through a personified relationship with the Bible

    This short-feature film totally comes off as a play--because it is and I absolutely loved the dynamic. This film was incredibly relatable for me and uncannily asked the questions about faith that I wrestle with daily. The acting drives the pacing of the film and keeps you interested. Speaking in terms of filmmaking, this movie is impressively creative and innovative in bending the traditional rules of film in order to better suit the story. I think people of faith should watch this, people not of faith should watch this, aspiring filmmakers should watch this, professional filmmakers should watch this, I think everyone should watch this movie!!
