    Throw it in the furnace

    Sue me, I don't like any movies with preachy religious undertones, and especially not overt ones like in this.

    I'm sure if you are a christian you'd love it.

    Jaime Bernadette is Iconic

    Jaime Bernadette is the star of this film in absolutely every way. She captures every emotion perfectly. I can't say enough about her performance. I was not crazy about the writing, but it was better than average. I would have taken a closer look at the dialogue. The cinematography was very good and the direction was very good. But, in the end it is Jaime that makes this a 9.

    Wonderful movie

    This was a well written movie that was riveting by great actors, great scenery, and an awesome plot. The movie showed Christianity but was not overly done.

    What a story and Jamie nails the lead!

    I watch hundreds of indie films every year and I rarely comment on but jamie Bernadette truly carries this film to a new level. The cinematography, performances, locations, and story grab your heart and give Inspiration to anyone that fight daily to overcome the worst obstacles. I can't wait to see more from this fine actor!
