Joshua
One man holds the answer
Directed by Jon Purdy
Produced by Crusader Entertainment, Epiphany Films LLC
A contemplative Christian allegory about a mysterious stranger whose benevolent presence transforms a small town while raising questions about faith, identity, and redemption.
When Joshua moves to the outskirts of Auburn, he awakens the curiosity of the sleepy town. They don’t know who he is or where he came from, but no one can shake the feeling they’ve known him for years. Despite his benevolence and selfless work in the community, some remain suspicious. Just what exactly is Joshua up to?
