FILM SYNOPSIS:
THE
OTHER SIDE OF HEAVEN 2: FIRE OF FAITH continues the epic true saga of
Elder John H. Groberg's missionary adventures in Tonga as depicted in
the eponymous Disney-distributed hit film of 2001. Whereas the original
movie detailed Elder Groberg's first mission to Tonga in the 1950's as a
19 year-old bachelor, the sequel tells the inspiring true story of his
return to Tonga in the 1960's with his wife and five young daughters to
serve as President of the Tonga-Fiji Mission.
With
their child's life on the line, John and Jean face the ultimate trial
of their faith only to find themselves enfolded in the love and prayers
of thousands of Tongans of various religions who unite in a nationwide
fast for the health of their little boy. Barriers of inter-religious
strife are broken down as all unite in hopes of a miracle that will save
the Groberg baby boy's life, as well as that of the son of a non-Mormon
Tongan minister who has been beaten within inches of death for
religious reasons.
Director's message:
When
I made the first "Other Side of Heaven" movie 17 years ago, I never
imagined it would spawn an Academy Award winning actor's career, nor
that it would be distributed in DVD by Walt Disney Home Entertainment.
Neither did I imagine that, all these years later, it would spawn an
ambitious sequel.
Like
the original film, this new movie tells the true story of Elder John H.
Groberg's missionary adventures in Tonga, only this time he is
returning with his wife, Jean, and their five young daughters. His
second mission proves just as dramatic and transformative as his first,
as does the second film depicting that mission. Thanks in advance for
watching!
