“Rather than attempting the whole life of Abraham, the film concentrates on the journey toward the sacrifice of Isaac. That narrow focus brings the story close to the father and son themselves, allowing one of Genesis's shortest and most unsettling episodes to unfold as an intimate test of faith, love, and obedience.”
Storyline
By God's order, Abraham was commanded to sacrifice his son Isaac on the mountain of Moriah. While traveling to the place of the sacrifice, alongside Isaac and two servants, Abraham is flooded with vivid memories from the years he and Sarah spent longing for the son they were promised—the son he must now lay upon the altar.
