A critically acclaimed production set inside the crumbling walls of a dilapidated Victorian sanitarium, eight mysterious characters reveal their secret stories to the visiting camera. The eight are linked by one unifying and crucial event in their lives: each of them has had an encounter with Jesus of Nazareth in some way -an experience that has left an indelible mark.
Here we meet contemporary versions of old and familiar characters found in the Gospels: Barabbas, a fellow prisoner of Jesus who was spared crucufixion; Judas Iscariot, who betrayed Jesus; a servant girl, who meets Jesus the night before his death; the duty bound centurion; the rich, young ruler now grown old; the window of Nain, who found her son that was raised still had to die someday; and the thief crucified alongside Jesus. Each character brushed with Jesus in some way but most missed their moment. They touched the light then lingered in the shaddows. They were offered freedom but made friends with their chains. Now they are haunted by the memory of what was and what might have been.
This series will capture, hold and fascinate the audience, then linger on in their minds long after the credits have rolled.
