Christian film portraying Abraham and Isaac, “His Only Son,” earned $11 million at the domestic box office.
The Angel Studios’ film was produced with a budget of $250,000 and advertised through crowdfunding campaigns.
“Our investors believed in the project, and crowdfunded the P&A, so word could get out,” said Senior VP of Global Distribution at Angel Studios Jared Geesey.
“This film was up against big studio films with serious marketing budgets, and yet, this film continues to turn in incredible numbers. We believe that the audience is the future of this industry, and we have faith they’ll prove that over and over again with each new offering they choose to get behind.”
Reporting from The Daily Wire:
“His Only Son recounts one of the most controversial moments in the Old Testament — when Abraham was commanded by God to sacrifice his son Isaac on the mountain of Moriah,” the official film synopsis says. “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.”
