The Devil Outside

Synopsis

Robert Eastwood is an innocent, brought up in a world of evangelical Christianity that has taught him to look for signs and to believe that evil is waiting just outside the front door. When he goes to school he is shocked to discover that no one else thinks the world was created in 7 days or that Jesus will be returning. Caught between his mother, who’s determined to bring Jesus’ love to a dead mining town, and his best friend Marcus, who’s introduced him to teenage rebellion, Robert becomes embroiled in a spiritual tug of war as he tries to escape his religious beliefs. It’s then that he discovers a dead body in the woods and realises that God has sent him a sign.
