ABOUT THE PROJECT
ABSOLUTION is the name given to a trilogy of screenplays about how the rejection of natural law leads to barren lives and impotent institutions, and how the adoption of natural law leads to fruitful lives and redemptive institutions.
The three stories are classic chancel dramas about individuals who risk all to make their family whole, while battling misguided church bureaucrats led by a bishop who fears conflict more than truth. Joseph Cardinal Ratzinger (now Pope Benedict XVI) in contemplating such men, recalls:
TIGER'S HOPE, the first story, is about a popular singer, who although she has everything going for her -- talent, notoriety, and a quick tempter -- risks her health and career to battle a progressive but destructive part of the health care industry as well as the local Catholic chancery -- so she can bring into this world a baby of her own.
The second story, ALEX'S CHARITY, is about an African American artist and Church deacon, who struggles with his chancery to adopt orphaned siblings who are Caucasian.
FATHER'S FAITH is about a priest who, during the fallout of a clergy sex scandal, and for the convenience of the bishop, was laicized. Having returned to his former life as a champion ballroom dancer and instructor, the ex-priest now battles the chancery and the local prosecutor to get his collar back.
