Synopsis:
In a future state where all organized religion has been made illegal, An aged fugitive priest, Father Mac, attempts to hold on to the one thing that held his life together: the faith. A young couple and their daughter who have been hiding him for some time now think it may no longer be safe. One night, the family discovers that the people looking for the priest murdered a neighboring couple. The community that once supported him now argues over whether or not they should turn him over to those who want him dead. Father Mac must decide to turn himself in or flee to stay alive.
