A community is grappling with their faith and belief in God in an almost-forgotten part of town overtaken by a vicious gang infestation, witnessing their neighborhoods torn apart and their youth being targeted for recruitment by the gangs.

With God at his side and his faith strong, Pastor Miguel sets out to empower the youth, motivate the community to take action, and, in the end, reignite the community’s faith in God.
