2 roles
Michael is a talented young graphic designer consumed by deadlines, screens, and ambition. Driven but distant, he’s buried in his work and has grown numb to his spiritual life and disconnected from the people who care about him. As conviction quietly begins to press in, Michael finds himself at a crossroads torn between his grind and a greater call to wake up to what truly matters
Sarah is Michael’s childhood best friend—grounded, sincere, and full of quiet strength. While life has pulled them in different directions, she’s always remained spiritually rooted and emotionally present. Sarah sees through Michael’s walls and isn’t afraid to challenge him with truth, but always in love. She represents what he’s lost sight of: connection, faith, and authenticity. Her presence is steady, but her voice can stir conviction.
