Classic Restoration

Classic Restoration is a powerful, modern-day retelling of the parable of the Prodigal Son.

Set in the American Southwest, the film tells the story of Jose Gonzales and his journey into a lifestyle of empty decadence, and his return, out of heartbreak and despair, to his father's house. 

Classic Restoration” is a creative re-telling of the Prodigal Son. It emotionally engages viewers and draws them into the world of this powerful narrative. The characters are believable and transparent, allowing viewers to relate to them in a modern context. The film medium is a powerful tool for sharing God’s redeeming love, communicating a message of hope to our broken world. This production is sure to convict and reveal the heart of God to those who are at greatest risk.

In Classic Restoration the parable of The Prodigal Son is brought to life in film in a relatable way so that inmates can identify themselves and their relationships with the characters. The guided questions about the film and scripture progress in a manner that encourages the viewers to dig deeper and interpret the many meanings of the parable. Forgiveness, shame and restoration are impactful issues that are addressed in this study.

Behind the Scenes.

Nothing like working as an actor on the pig farm. There was nothing glamorous for Eduardo on a very hot summer day in Louisiana with flies, rotten food, and stinky pigs.  This was the first day of filming!

Working with classic cars was highly enjoyable for our three main actors Blain, Randy and Eduardo.
