Shervin Youssefian's CROSSROAD Launches on DVD Today

CROSSROAD weaves a story of ordinary, seemingly unrelated people who learn the intimate power of God in a hostage situation with lives hanging in the balance. With his feature movie debut, award-winning Director Shervin Youssefian takes audiences to the CROSSROAD, a gripping film that debuts on DVD today, March 12, 2013.

"Twelve strangers cross paths in a diner, and as a hostage situation ensues, little by little they learn how they're all connected," said Youssefian, who also wrote CROSSROAD. "Trusting God is the central theme of the movie."

SYNOPSIS

Fueled by revenge, Michael (Philip Bulcock) sets up a meeting at an out-of-the-way diner with the man who murdered his wife and child six years earlier. But his plans of killing him come to a sudden standstill when two gunmen burst in to rob the place. Michael takes matters into his own hands, shooting a robber and holding the entire diner hostage until the man he really wants to target arrives. In the midst of all these events, Michael finds an unlikely ally in Don (Kim Estes), a devout Christian who believes God is going to help him in his endeavor. While Michael battles with his faith, the hostages begin to find extraordinary connections between them. CROSSROAD is an emotional and inspiring story of redemption, forgiveness and the ultimate realization of God's grace at work in every life.
