Grace Surpasses
Grace Surpasses is a story about perseverance in a country where peace is an ancient relic and hope is a dangerous luxury. In Southern Sudan, Grace's family lives in constant fear of violence. With nowhere to hide, each new day brings the potential for danger. By focusing on the experiences of one child, we get a glimpse into the day-to-day realities of life in Southern Sudan, where the absence of clean drinking water, public health, and a consistent food supply make even the most basic necessities of life a constant struggle. Despite the hardship, Grace and her family manage to thrive in the face adversity – until a personal tragedy threatens to destroy Grace’s hope.
Grace Surpasses was built and filmed not only for film festivals/DVD sales, but also for live performances. The score to our film Grace Surpasses is extremely powerful and greatly compliments the films non-verbal dialog state. Seeing the film projected with a live band interacting with the story of the film is an experiment we're glad to take on knowing that this mixed media performance will raise many eyebrows. We're always looking for new bands to take on Grace Surpasses and adapt the score to their genre.
