Synopsis
God's Heart
Published by Samuel French Inc
3 Male 5 Female
An African American teenager fights to overcome his family's cycle of despair and drug dependency, a thirty five year old white advertising executive with a new baby suffers from a deep sense of her own spiritual worthlessness, and a forty five year old documentary film maker, also white, is losing her African American lover to breast cancer
Using newspaper headlines, cyber chat rooms, online data bases and a dream like array of startling, sometimes beautiful often terrible images carved from the nightmares of these disparate souls, God's Heart seeks compassion for those who cry out for connection, peace and kindness in the face of the unspeakable cruelty and exploitation that erode the heart of American culture
