“Home Beyond the Sun” is the story of two girls, Jenna (Melyssa Ade) a 22-year old American teacher and the other Chu Lee (Molly Sayers) an eight-year old Chinese orphan. Together, with the help of the Lord and the guidance of His Word, they overcome the adversity of prejudice, persecution, and political oppression to find solace and protection in the bossom of a Christian family. This extraordinarily moving feature explores the social and political realities of China today. In this deeply committed visual adventure, the creative fire of Christian love warms the hearts of rebels with a cause. “Home Beyond the Sun” is the story of despair and hope, deceit and compassion, depression and renewal.
