SABBATH is an expansive look at the Commandment to “rest” and “keep holy the Lord’s Day” across religions and cultures throughout America. From the first Pilgrim settlements to the large scale religious gatherings of today to how COVID has changed the way Americans gather for worship, the film explores how Sabbath has been and continues to be an important theme etched into the story of America.

From the Biblical accounts of Creation, to the 10 Commandments, to the Puritans landing in the New World, to the contemporary practice of a "tech-sabbath" - SABBATH ties together our collective history, our health practices, our response to God's invitation and the search for a more sustainable way of life.
