I've seen this film a few times now. It gets better and somehow more meaningful each time. Along with Rick Garside's excellent screenplay and masterful direction (the "glue") it's the characters that take you through this journey of troubles, trials and tribulations (all of which are based on true stories in this film) and remind you of what faith is (or can be) in ways any and all can relate to. It's a good thing that pretty much all of this talented cast are, at the moment, unfamiliar faces to the movie going public. It adds to its realism, message and believability--all without being "preachy", an element that sometimes can cause an audience to squirm under even under the best faith-based intentions. This film is one that will make you laugh, cry and smile--all while keeping you interested in the characters and story as it moves forward, up, down and all around. It's a must see for everyone. Enjoy!
