Based
on the beloved novel by Joseph Girzone, Joshua is the story of what
might happen if Jesus, going by the name Joshua, were to show up in
a small town in Middle America. It is a modern parable about how compassion
and charity can transform our modern world. Starring Tony Goldwyn (Bounce,
Ghost), F. Murray Abraham (Academy Award winner Amadeus), Academy Award
nominee Giancarlo Giannini
When
Joshua moves to the outskirts of Auburn, he awakens the curiosity of
the sleepy town. The locals aren't quite sure what to make of him. They
don't know who is, or where he came from, but no one can shake the feeling
that they've known him for years.
"Sometimes
you have to tear something down in order to build it back up again,"
he explains to the amazed townspeople as he attempts to single-handedly
rebuild a burned down Baptist Church. It is with this simple logic combined
with his enigmatic presence that Joshua convinces them to join him.
But what actually ends up getting rebuilt is each of their lives, their
hearts, their trust in themselves and the each other. Finally, these
co-existing strangers come together as a community.
Known
only by his first name, his wisdom and compassion places him at the
center of the town's attention. This attention intensifies as Joshua
shatters prejudice and misconception on his path, and even seems to
perform miracles.
Despite
his benevolence and selfless work in the community, some remain suspicious.
There are those who fear that no one in today's world would do something
for nothing. Just what exactly is Joshua up to? In the end, it is the
answer to that question which is nearly as extraordinary as the discovery
of that same transforming power in each of their own hearts.
JOSHUA
is a modern parable about how compassion and charity can transform our
troubled world.
