This Political Thriller Delivers a Timely Message as Religious Freedom Comes under Attack
"P""ersecuted" is an action-packed thriller that will open viewers' eyes to the growing attacks on the freedom of speech and religious freedom. Opening nationwide spring 2014, the film is written and directed by Daniel Lusko and stars James Remar (What Lies Beneath, X-Men: First Class), Academy Award nominee Bruce Davison, (X-Men, Lost) and Fred Dalton Thompson (Secretariat, Law & Order).
Together with Lusko, suspense novelist Robin Parrish brings the film to paper in this page-turning novelization. John Luther, a contemporary evangelist, is standing as the last holdout for a national endorsement to make sweeping reforms in freedom of speech. As the government is mandating political correctness while covertly waging a war against religious organizations, a U.S. senator and his political allies create a sinister plan of denial and scandal to frame Luther for murder. Suddenly his once normal life is turned upside-down as he becomes a fugitive vowing to expose those responsible. It is a mission that brings him face-to-face with the coming storm of persecution that will threaten the moral ethics and freedoms of America.
