The film takes us on a journey through Greg’s early years as he becomes part of the “Jesus movement” that originated in Southern California in the late 1960s and early 1970s. This movement later spread throughout North America and Europe, bringing about one of the greatest spiritual awakenings in American history.
The movie showcases Greg’s experiences as he and his hippie friends arrive on the American west coast, determined to breathe new life into a dying church. As they embark on their mission to spread the Gospel, they encounter a series of challenges that test their faith, resilience, and determination. The film expertly weaves together themes of faith, rock and roll, and newfound love, creating a heartwarming coming-of-age story out of it.
