Synopsis
A retelling of the parable of the prodigal son, juxtaposed with interviews of real people struggling with distractions from their faith and the shame that follows addiction. Combining both narrative and documentary elements, it features subjects of brokenness, identity and grace. This event brings people together for a night to understand they are not alone and can find freedom. Freedom from performance. Freedom from managing our behavior, so we appear acceptable. Freedom from our addictions, compulsive behaviors, secrecy and double lives.
