Twist of Faith

Twist of Faith, an Original Movie on Lifetime®, is a cross-cultural, music infused love story. Jacob Fisher (David Julian Hirsh), an Orthodox Jewish Cantor and amateur songwriter from Brooklyn, is bereft after the senseless murder of his wife and children. Catatonic, he walks out on his Jewish mourning ritual, leaving behind his Jewish garments, wallet and keys. He abandons his identity and wanders aimlessly, hoping to somehow understand his tragedy. He lands in Brent, Alabama (population 2,500), where he is embraced by Nina (Toni Braxton), a single mother and gospel choir lead singer and her Uncle Moe (Mykelti Williamson). With their help and that of the gospel community, Jacob is able to make sense of his past and learns to live his life again.
