A live-action short film, created by an all-youth cast from the Anaheim, California 4th, 5th, & 8th wards of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
Ammon is one of my favorite character in the Book of Mormon. The Lord works in mysterious ways. thumbs up to you guys. keeping the youth of ward that way is a great idea. especially when hollywood nowadays is promoting much violence and non sense.
Kudos for an excellent job, each of you. Most of all, for bearing your testimony of the truthfulness of God’s word by your talent and glorifying our Father in Heaven. Well done!
Well done. Brings to light that the Book of Mormon is not, nor the Bible, for that matter, of PG content. There was, and continues to be, great contention that, at times, needs to be met with great force, violence even. Heavenly father does not send the faint of heart to this "great experiment" called life.
This video shou ld be more popular. It's so good and well made and represents the story very well. also I was able to enjoy the story more than usual. It's a really great creation you have made. Great job, it was cool.
Well done! Way to go, my home stake. You guys did a great job on this. Love the soundtrack, too. You guys rocked this :) ... Very proud to be from Anaheim :D
Congratulations on an excellent short film. I hope you plan to enter it in the 2015 LDS Film Festival coming up in just a few months. See www.ldsfilmfestival.org
Big up from Sweden. We really enjoyed and thought in the beginning that this will be a great film to let the kids watch at primary, but when I saw there were fake arms and not real arms, we decided to not watch it ;-)
so much enlightenment has been taken out of every religious sect. so sad. if we all shared information, we would excel. for are we all not perfectly and rightfully wrong?
Ammon was a very precise soldier for God and it was with the power of high precision that he fought off the angry men. We should try to understand that the essential nature of God is that he is a spirit of extremely high precision. Read Hebrews 4:12 to get the idea. By the word 'precise' I mean exact in timing and placement. King David was very precise, killing a bear a lion and Goliath with very precise shots, the power of God. He killed 200 men with the same power. He was very wise by the same precision power of God. Hence we can understand the scripture that says Jesus will inherit the throne of his father David. Jesus was the son of God and had no connection to the lineage of David. It actually means Christ will reign forever with an extremely precise power of God, like unto the precision that David displayed. High precision is the essential nature of God. We think God is omnipotent, omniscient, omnipresent, all-loving, and everlasting, but those ideas were established by Indian Gurus and totally miss the point that the essence of God is high precision. The gift we receive at baptism, the Holy Spirit is also extremely precise. I hope these words increase your understanding and faith in God.
Thank you all for sharing an amazing version.

This is wonderful! I used it today for my primary class, and they loved it! Great cinematography. Thanks for sharing.

How do I get ahold of this film maker?
good job guys! loved the little guy who played King Lamoni!!
AWESOME!!!
This looks soo real
great job. I am using it in primary tomorrow. I think I will explain that the arms are fake first. It is part of the scripture so must be included.
Congratulations on an excellent short film. I hope you plan to enter it in the 2015 LDS Film Festival coming up in just a few months. See www.ldsfilmfestival.org
that was pretty good
Have you read the script or the book of mormon?
You guys did a really good job!
Help!
amen
Great work!
Where the arms ACTUALLY cut off!?!?!
The music was brilliant! Where did it come from?
It's James Horner's score from "A New World", a movie about Pocahontas. The full score is beautiful.
Where are they? It looks so tropical.
👑💲 for the best way for you😇
Love it. But they shoud've made a leather flipflop not the rubber we use today.🤣
thanks for using media for good
Check out Longfellow's "song of Haiewatha"
Nice job!
i'm wondering how old these people are,
Big up from Sweden. We really enjoyed and thought in the beginning that this will be a great film to let the kids watch at primary, but when I saw there were fake arms and not real arms, we decided to not watch it ;-)
shoseftw What would you have done. Really chop off arms, don't be so ignorant...lol
Yes, Laz man. Of course there would be real chopped arms... jeez.
I love this story, but I still like 3 Nephi 11 and Abinadi and King Noah from the Book of Mormon better, Abinadi was a man's man!
so much enlightenment has been taken out of every religious sect. so sad. if we all shared information, we would excel. for are we all not perfectly and rightfully wrong?
Hey beautiful
eckhard hensel Check out the mormon channel. there are many good stories there.
I believe they will do more Book of Mormon films but after they finish with the quality Bible videos they are doing.
I think it's good enough for the general public. I don't see the problem but I respect your opinion.
To add: it's just something these youth wanted to do. It doesn't need to be professional.
It was interesting.Too graphic in my opinion.
I will politely disagree about the second parr
Lol, this was pretty good
nice faking the arms being chopped off my sister freaked out and all the other stuff is amazing

Terrible acting.
A nice way to compliment youth who have never acted before in their lives or had any formal, acting training, but hey, we'll take it.
