The Road Back to Light
A feature film following a disillusioned young man whose journey home becomes a journey back to God. Shot on location across Nigeria.
Adaeze's brother left home with anger in his chest and a promise never to return. Years later, broke and broken, he starts the long walk back — not knowing whether the door will be open.
Loosely retelling the parable of the prodigal son in a contemporary Nigerian setting, "The Road Back to Light" asks what it means for a father to keep watching the road — and what it costs a family to forgive.
But when he was yet a great way off, his father saw him, and had compassion, and ran. — Luke 15:20
Winner of the Audience Choice award at the Kingdom Film Festival. Gather your household — this one is worth watching together.
