Feature Documentary | IN DEVELOPMENT

THE FILM

This unique film is the transformational story of Todd & Melissa Shaffer who lost their 18yo son, Tristan, to suicide. It follows them through the immediate aftermath of the loss to five years out as they grapple with grief, trauma, and unimaginable pain.

Along their journey they find God walking with them in the depths of the darkness, and they discover they can spiritually flourish while their hearts are crushed.

The most amazing discovery of all is that their pain has a purpose--a purpose of unexpected transformation.
