A Great Awakening, a docudrama from Joshua Enuck’s faith-based Sight & Sound, will be released in theaters by Roadside Attractions.
The film tells the true story of an unlikely friendship between the Reverend George Whitefield and Benjamin Franklin that resulted in one of the most defining moments in American history.
A Great Awakening opens in theaters, Easter weekend, on April 3rd, 2026, coinciding with the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence.
With the colonies on the brink of collapse, the Reverend George Whitefield ignites the first Great Awakening, uniting an entire generation with his thundering and faithful sermons and proclamations of liberty. In a miraculous turn of events, one of Whitefield’s closest friends and greatest promoters becomes none other than Benjamin Franklin.
With the nation’s freedom hanging in the balance, the founders discover true liberty cannot only be written into law – it must be awakened in the hearts of the people.
“Our mission is to bring powerful stories of redemption to life on stage and screen, and this film highlights a profound event in our nation’s history that united a generation with the belief that faith and liberty are undoubtably intertwined,” said Joshua Enuck, President of Sight & Sound and director of A Great Awakening.
