Resurrection

Edna returns to her small hometown in Kansas, reuniting with family and the familiar Midwestern landscape. The local community gathers at places like Esco's Last Chance Gas, a roadside stop that becomes a touchpoint for Edna's growing powers. Portions of the story later move to California for tests, highlighting the tension between ordinary life and extraordinary gifts.

✨ Healing Power

Edna's out-of-body experience awakens a healing ability that touches neighbors and strangers alike. The power is both a blessing and a burden, drawing crowds and scrutiny, while reshaping how she sees herself after her husband's death. The film explores the responsibilities that come with extraordinary gifts and the way communities respond to miraculous claims.

🙏 Faith vs Skepticism

Esco, Cal, and the town wrestle with what Edna's abilities mean for faith, science, and personal belief. Psychologists witness healings and seek to test her, raising questions about the legitimacy of miracles. Cal's insistence that Edna is a divine sign drives conflict, testing love against dogma. The story probes how belief can both inspire hope and provoke fear.
