A Life’s Passion is the biography of James McCreath, who turned his real-life story into the epic novel and family saga, Renaldo. Director Gary Thomas interweaves McCreath’s on-camera testimony with dramatic animated sequences and an original score absolutely true to the novel’s historical fiction, and poignantly captures McCreath’s personal credo that without faith, hope and passion, life is a tragedy.

"At a time in my life when despair could have easily overwhelmed me, I was driven to produce this story of a special young man living in a country that seemed to be without hope," states author James McCreath. "As fate would have it, the events that actually happened in Argentina in 1978 gave an entire nation more hope than they had ever experienced. And writing this story gave me the hope that I too could overcome the challenges the fate had dealt me. "
