CAPTIVE, based on a miraculous true story that drew the attention of the entire nation, is a thrilling drama about the spiritual collision of two broken lives.
The story begins when Brian Nichols – on the run as the subject of a city wide manhunt and desperate to make contact with his newborn son – takes recovering meth addict Ashley Smith hostage in her own apartment, she turns for guidance to Rick Warren’s best-selling inspirational book, The Purpose Driven Life. While reading aloud, Ashley and her would-be killer each face crossroads where despair and death intersect hope.
Watch the suspenseful trailer below:
It is a daring thing to base a movie around a faith book. Many times it fails, because people anticipate a word for word interpretation. This movie steps outside of that method because it follows real events that happened and were affected because of the book. At the heart of the movie,’The Purpose Driven Life’ guides the unsuspecting characters on a journey of discovery in search of answers to life’s most important question: What on earth am I here for? Five biblical answers are designed to transform readers’ outlook on life.
David Oyelowo, who starred in successful civil rights film SELMA, says:
‘My faith as a Christian is the cornerstone of my life and CAPTIVE is the universal story of a modern day miracle. This film shows two broken people who unexpectedly find light in the most unexpected place.’
The release date will be confirmed soon. What do you think of what you have seen so far?
