"I started to compose other things, life-relevant things. That could tell someone something. And coincidentally, a dialogue began to form between Isaiah and these new songs. A dialogue of almost two cries that shout at each other." Duarte Rosado SJ. The documentary is actually a look at this dialogue between Isaiah and the new songs of Duarte. A testimony to fragility as a place of grace. In addition to the practical effect of recording the day of the recording, this short documentary seeks to suspend a space and time where the prophecy of Isaiah and the human condition touch.

...another short film for children about a young girl leading her friend to Christ by means of a “wordless book,” a 1950s evangelistic tool used in many conservative churches. A “wordless book” contained colored pages with no commentary, from black pages to show a person’s sinfulness, through the red blood pages of Jesus’s sacrifice, to a heart made whiter than snow, to the gold streets of heaven. It was used in evangelism to show and tell about the plan of salvation. - Terry Lindvall and Andrew Quicke, CELLULOID SERMONS: THE EMERGENCE OF THE CHRISTIAN FILM INDUSTRY 1930-1986
