I have officially finished a project that has been in the works long before Sierra Leone. It is a short film, written and directed by me, but finished only with the support of my family and close friends. This project would not have been completed without their talent. The entire budget for this film was $11, spent on clothes I purchased at Goodwill.
As for the script, I wanted to somehow depict an epic story of how the Bible affects our every day actions, and the future ramifications of these effects. I feel the Bible is often regarded as merely a great book of history, rather than a powerful piece of God that, often unknowingly, transforms lives. This is metaphor from my own mind that follows the life of a simple man and the impact of the Word's power (δύναμις) on the people he meets.
