He looks like Jesus Christ and preaches like St. Francis of Assisi. Some say he’s a “kook.” Others, a blessing from God.” Barefoot, and clad in a white robe, he’s walked through 467 states [and 13 countries] on a 16-year mission that’s captured media attention from 20/20, TIME and the Wall Street Journal.
Yet who is this solitary figure who inspires faith and attracts controversy? The Jesus Guy covers the mystical journey of America’s “Barefoot Evangelist.” In a nation that worships money, he’s penniless. In a culture that idolizes celebrities, he’s forsaken his identity. Now, on a spiritual quest even he doesn’t fully understand, his faith, and your own, will be tested every step of the way.
With the intimacy of single-camera filmmaking, Director Sean Tracey allows us to walk in the The Jesus Guy’s steps as he enounters both skeptics and believers, changing them…
for better, for worse, forever.
"The Jesus Guy challenges the modern idea of evangelists as he takes a different approach, following in the steps of Jesus - asking for no money, food, or lodging and accepting only what was offered to him. He even took on the look of Jesus.
-PHIL COOKE, Media Consulting and author of "Branding Faith"
“Once you’ve seen The Jesus Guy in this film, he’ll stay in your mind forever. Unforgettable.
Absolutely unforgettable.”
-ALBERT MAYSLES, Legendary Documentary Filmmaker
“…An enthralling subject and story. The intimacy and authenticity of The Jesus Guy’s cinematography is refreshing. You feel like you’re right there with this unusual man as his life is unfolding.”
-BILL BUTLER, ASC, Academy and Emmy Award Winning Cinematographer of Jaws, Grease & Rocky
