This short film showcases a young man who gets entangled in the battles of life. It metaphorically shows how the various areas that we fight amongst ourselves for actually create seeds of implosion within us. Amidst his ordeal, the character heeds the still, small guiding voice of God which reveals to him who he really should be fighting, and also equips him with the armour needed for that fight. The intent for the film is to create strong visuals which highlights a range of these physical battles which we can identify with, then providing the proper solution; the word of God.
The short film highlights the spiritual battle that we should be focusing on versus the common reality- that we tend to focus on physical battles. In the film, the main character has a moment of enlightenment, where he makes this change; Instead of fighting earthly battles, he shifts his focus to the spiritual, utilizing the armour of God in his new found quest to fight against those spiritual powers in high places.

Fighting...wrestling...battling...warring...senselessly...
How long...
Child of God how long will we go on?!
We fight for all sorts of reasons; status, partners, money, power, vengeance; hence getting
caught up in greed & envy...which breeds hatred one to another.
We lust & we do not receive, & so we fall further into sin. & When strong enough, it's as if these
same issues become personified …& they themselves drag us to the ground!
"Son...get up..my son...look closer"
Through the noise that still small voice always penetrates. We just have to listen.
It causes you to break free. You realize that life is more than the rat race, the
hustle, the striving back and forth.
If you thought you were fighting then…
Well
Now the REAL battle begins.
After you break the bonds of earthly battles to face your real
battles, you realize so much more that there is an entity behind it all. The one who is responsible for spiritual
evil in high places. This is your battle! Clothe yourself in truth, righteousness, the
readiness of the gospel, faith, salvation & the sword of the spirit... and when you do,
use them....and win!
