Contents/Summary

Summary
This short film is based on the legend of St. Christopher, a man of imposing stature and physical strength, whose great size and power made him a good choice to help people cross the river. One day, a small child approached the river and asked to be carried across. The giant discovered that the small boy was far heavier than any other passenger he had ever carried. The child revealed that he was in fact Jesus Christ, and that his unusual weight was due to the fact that he bore the sins of the world.
