🚦 Rating: Everyone
Young George’s family presents an example of courage and love under pressure from a hostile culture. Gerontius and Polychronia are loving and lively, giving an example of a loving home no matter the outside circumstances. Gerontius also exemplifies cultivating friendship with someone who may not share your values.
Includes aggressive language from a pagan character because of a Christian’s belief. George’s Father’s martyrdom is implied and George grieves his lost.
