touching

[Kirpianuscus · 15 July 2018]

...like many others Christian films. a young shepherd. the stories of his father. his small desires and dreams and faith and expectations. and a meet changing everything. it is easy to say Jason Buster does a great job as the young shepherd. or than the atmosphere is inspired. or the plot is more than well crafted. the only not wrong but , maybe, not the most useful detail is Darin Southam in the role of stranger. sure, my opinion is the word from a Greek - Orthodox believer, not very happy with the portrait of Savior from Romano - Catholic/ Evangelical tradition. but the film is touching and the story real works and this fact is real important, agains every detail not very inspired.because, first, it represents a story of faith.

This movie tales the tell of the son of one of the shepherds who visited Christ the child. It is later in the young man's life after his father has died in an accident and he has been left crippled. While tending to sheep on the anniversary of our saviors birth he reflects on his fathers stories of that night and dreams of one day meeting the man Jesus who even now is going about Jerusalem healing and preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God. Alone in a cave while he waits to pass the night watching over his flock he meets a visitor. The story is narrated in the young child's voice and said in scenes of pastoral bands with beautiful sunsets and mountain backdrop. The acting is restrained but graceful. Punctuated by the humble but powerful presence of the actor playing Jesus Christ. His late night visit and conversation with this young crippled shepherd will chill your body but warm your soul. I have watched it three times already on Redeem TV and it is one of my favorite programs to watch at night when I cannot get to sleep. I was going to give this movie a nine out of 10 but I could not think of one thing I would change about the production so in my book that's a 10. even if you do not usually enjoy Christian movies this is simply a beautiful story that you can enjoy over and over again alone or with your family.
