Luke hides from the dreaded Temple Guard with the early disciples hoping to further his research into his report on Jesus, but he gets more than he bargained for when he begins to hear the great storyteller's own stories; the parables.

The series is a modern-day reimagining of the Book of Acts that follows the early followers of Jesus in an alternate, modern era. A resurrection sparks a new movement that turns the world upside down, spreading hope amid chaos. As the followers risk everything to preach the good news, the Temple races to silence them before the oppressive Imperium regime retaliates. But public miracles, unburied secrets, and fractured loyalties force both sides to confront the true cost of their choices.

The Parables Retold is a series of short films based on some of the most famous of Jesus’ parables. Created in the UK, this series brings these stories to life by adapting them to screen and to the present day. What kind of characters or circumstances might have Jesus used if He were to tell the same parables today? These films don’t replace the parables of the bible, they connect people to them. The parables have chimed with people for generations and it is a privilege to tell them in a new way for the generation of today
