Escape to Egypt
11/01/2020
Proof of Concept Trailer
(My only copyright claim is to the Screenplay)
Log line: When the Holy Family narrowly escapes a raid on Bethlehem, they take a dangerous journey to stay ahead of Herod’s forces. It’s a biblical thriller inspired by The Protoevangelium of James, various Christian Orthodoxies, and the Writings of Josephus.
Nepotism, inequality, police brutality, civil unrest, this is the authoritarian world Jesus was born into. Escape to Egypt is a nail-biting tale about faith, and the lengths families will go to save the ones they love. According to Amnesty International there are 25.9 million seekers of asylum worldwide and half are children, this movie is meant to both entertain a global audience and soften their hearts to the plight of today’s refugees. When Joseph awakes from a nightmare of the terrible fate that awaits them in Egypt, he keeps it from his wife, Mary, as they fight to get their Holy Child beyond Bethlehem’s gates, across the border to Ashkelon, and then to Egypt while facing threats from man-eating lions, childish governors, venomous snakes, Roman troops, cutthroats, Herod’s own special forces, and the great Satan, Samael, the Angel of Death; truly, if they are to survive, it will take a miracle.
