Angels in Our Midst - A Story About a Boy, a Girl, and an Angel

Angels in Our Midst, a new inspirational film available from Bridgestone Multimedia Group, tells the story of a middle school student dealing with the loss of his parents in the 9/11 terrorist attacks. Traumatized by his parents’ tragic death, Tobey Marshall is now an outcast who only finds comfort in his faith and a guardian angel. Despite his unusual behavior and beliefs, Tobey is pleasantly surprised by the friendship of Suzy, a kind classmate whose own beliefs are in question. As the two spend time together, Suzy discovers that they have more in common than she ever could have imagined. However, school basketball star Jim Doder makes life difficult for the newfound friends when Suzy rejects his affections. When Jim frames Tobey for involvement in a botched robbery attempt, Tobey is forced to face reality to prove his innocence to Suzy and his classmates. “Angels in Our Midst deals with the reality of being persecuted for one’s faith and also for just simply being different,” wrote Edwin L. Carpenter in his review for the Dove Foundation. “Ryan Sotzen as Tobey and Therese Boyich as Suzy give excellent performances and are the main reason the story works as well as it does.” Also starring Matthew Vuckovich as Jim Doder, Angels in Our Midst was written and directed by Robert Alaniz. Dove faith-friendly (12+). 106 minutes. Closed-captioned.
