The spirit of a stubborn Civil War era teenager is teamed up in Purgatory with the     spirit of an infuriating 1960's stockbroker. Both suspect that God has a mysterious purpose for them. He does.”

A spiritual fantasy with profound implications, “Schism”, joins Obe and Tony who fare from cultures and generations centuries apart at the highest level of Purgatory, then together through the heavenly realm, with flashbacks and earthly visits to the back woods of North Carolina, Georgia at the beginning of the civil war, and 60’s New York. This character-driven drama weaves doubt with love and mistrust with truth, exploring the ultimate meaning of moral fortitude, acknowledgement of, and trust in God.

An inspirational diorama of a journey to faith, one that talks to the unanswered questions about humanity’s free will, God’s existence, His motives and His tolerance of evil. Its underlying message is one of moral choices and trust. It also gives an entertaining fantasy glimpse of what heaven looks like and the magical things that happen there.
