Inspirational
In the small Lake Erie township of Benning, someone is at
work cultivating a
supernatural garden ... Andy Kemp's young life has been as ravaged as his scarred
face. Disfigured by an
abusive father, the teenager hides behind his books and an
impenetrable wall of
cynicism and anger. As Andy's mother struggles to reconnect with him, his Uncle
Rip returns
transformed from a stint in prison and wants to be a mentor
to the reclusive boy, doing everything he can to help end
Andy's pain. When Andy begins hearing
strange music through his iPod and making near-prophetic
announcements, Rip is
convinced that what Andy is hearing is the voice of God. Elsewhere, police officer Heather Gerisch responds to a
late-night breaking and entering
in one of the poorest homes in town. She soon realizes that
the masked prowler
has left thousands of dollars in gift cards from a local
grocery store. As the bizarre break-ins continue and Heather pursues the
elusive "Summer Santa," Andy
and Rip discover an enormous and well-kept garden of
wildflowers that seems to
have grown overnight at an abandoned steel mill. Soon, they realize who the gardener is, and a spree of
miracles transfigures this
small town from a place of hopelessness into a place of
healing and beauty.
