Vigilant
"Vigilant" is a short film that tells the story of Kevin, a dental hygienist addicted to Grabbles (an extremely unhealthy snack cake). Kevin decides to try to stop his struggle on his own, only to discover the company that makes the cakes is malevolently intent on keeping him as a loyal customer. He must enlist the help of a group of addiction survivors to help him fight the corporation that wants to keep him addicted to their snacks. As you watch this action-comedy, created in partnership with Josh McDowell Ministries, you'll see Kevin walking the road to overcome his struggle and finding that it can't be done alone.
