New Life: The Movie
New Life is a raw and authentic faith-based coming-of-age story about a college student navigating his relationship with Christ and all the bumps and struggles that come with it. The story follows Peter, an African American college freshman who is struggling to believe in Christianity. After experiencing a traumatic breakup, Peter begins to question his life, purpose, and identity. He blames his Christian upbringing and decides to walk away from his faith during college. At freshman orientation, we are introduced to Melissa, a college sophomore and enthusiastic follower of Christ. She is a student leader at a Christian fellowship group on campus called New Life. When Melissa meets Peter, she invites him to join the fellowship. After hearing his doubts, she compassionately challenges his unbelief.
