Michael Ochotorena stars as John Light, one of the most dangerous convicts at Arizona's State Penitentiary, in this true-to-life prison film. However, John shocked both guards and convicts when he accepted Christ during a prison bible study. He is eager to share his newfound religion with the rest of the world following his release. However, the outside world is scared of him since he appears more like a thug than a theologian. His sole allies are Matt Garrett (Michael Sigler), his meek and polite Christian mentor, and his no-nonsense parole officer (Dean Cain). John finds himself in a struggle for his life with men who have never thrown a punch in their lives.
