In this interview, Escobar talks with CMC host, Cheryl Ariaz Wicker, about how actors with personal

faith in Jesus have a great impact in portraying roles within faith-based films.

“Alone Yet Not Alone” is the true story of two young sisters who are carried away by a band of Allegheny warriors during the French-Indian War in the mid-18th century. Driven by their faith in God and the powerful bonds of family, the sisters hold firmly to the belief that they are never alone, even in their darkest hour, and that they will be reunited again.
