ABOUT THE MOVIE:
LET THERE BE LIGHT
Dr. Sol Harkens was at the top of his game. As a world renowned bestselling author and avowed atheist who’s built a career debating and attacking people’s religious beliefs. When he loses his young son to cancer, life as he knew it ceased to exist. Turning to alcohol fueled by his NY party lifestyle Sol seeks to numb the pain further isolating him from his ex-wife Katy and two remaining sons. Sol’s self-destructive habits catch up and a serious car crash leaves him clinically dead for four minutes before first responders resuscitate him. During those four minutes, Sol receives a message “Let There Be Light.” His outlook on life changes, he questions ‘what he may or may not have experienced’ and struggles to find meaning and purpose in the words.
