This is a film which will touch the hearts of viewers everywhere. The grandson of Nate Saint meets his grandfather’s murderers in Ecuador from the Waodani tribe and eventually calls them “grandfather” as he forms a lasting bond with them. The gospel message which Nate Saint brought to them has been fully realized. The viewer will meet Mincaye, one of the killers who murdered Nate Saint with a spear, and will see how today he is a laughing man who loves life, God, talks about the Bible and who forms a close relationship with Jesse. He even visits Jesse’s home in the states.
Although some of the gruesome events of the killing are briefly mentioned, there is humor included in the DVD which rounds out this nicely produced documentary. When Mincaye flies on a plane for the first time, he tells Steve, Nate’s son, that people had fallen out of the plane. He saw a few of them walk through a door. We learn it is the bathroom door they entered!
We are recommending this amazing and soul-touching DVD for ages twelve plus, as there is a scene of a speared bird and talk of a woman who was speared and then decapitated along with her feet being removed from her body. We suggest parents consult our content listing below. But overall the content is mild and the message is unmistakably powerful. This is a documentary which needs to be seen as it reveals the changing power of God’s love through the gospels and his word. It is a quality DVD. We award this DVD five Doves, our highest rating.
