The Modern Retelling of the Nativity Story
Comes to Digital December 1
Cinedigm (NASDAQ: CIDM) acquires North American rights to the
inspiring and uplifting film MIRACLE ON HIGHWAY 34, set to
release this holiday season. A diverse group of characters find
themselves together in a rundown diner on Christmas Eve; all the
while a young expecting couple tries to make it home on a night
that's anything but silent in MIRACLE ON HIGHWAY 34.
Sharonne Lanier (Son of the South, The Outsider), Nathan Clarkson
(The Purge, The Unlikely Good Samaritan), Josh Murray (The Reliant,
Killing Lincoln) & Dan Davidson (Sicario: Day of the Soldado,
The Brave) lead an ensemble cast. MIRACLE ON HIGHWAY 34 is
available on Digital December 1.
An out of the way truck stop plays host to a convergence of
strangers on Christmas Eve in MIRACLE ON HIGHWAY 34. A
hardworking waitress (Lanier) takes the late shift on Christmas Eve
to help cover her mounting bills. Expecting a silent and solitary
night, she is pleasantly surprised with the appearance of a
handsome but world-weary trucker (Davidson) who shows up looking
for a hot meal and company. As their friendship builds, they are
joined by others seeking shelter from the incoming snowstorm. On
this snowy night, with no room for them at the inn, they will have
to hope for a miracle.
Written, directed and produced by Clarkson, MIRACLE ON
HIGHWAY 34 is a modern retelling of the holiday story of the
Nativity. The film puts a contemporary spin on the faith genre much
like his previous films, Confessions of a Prodigal Son & The
Unlikely Good Samaritan, which were also successful modernizations
of popular biblical stories.
“For a long time, faith-based films have been very insular, only
connecting to a very niche audience,” says Clarkson. “Our desire is
to tell stories of faith that are also human, stories that have the
ability to connect to a wide range of people regardless of belief,
background, or experience.”
“Miracle on Highway 34 is a heartwarming story that reimagines
one of the most cherished stories of faith in present day,” says
Melody Fowler, Cinedigm’s Vice-President of Acquisitions. “Through
its authentic and relatable characters, who bond together in spite
of their differences, the film delivers a positive and timeless
message of hope that audiences need more than ever this holiday
season.”
MIRACLE ON HIGHWAY 34 is Executive Produced by Louis J.
Giovino.
