Synopsis

In the City of Angels, despair and heartache are the daily mail -- delivered with painful regularity whether we want them or not. In a world where so many seem to have so much, no one is immune -- everyone struggles with something.

Through I AM, we join an eclectic cast as they try to untangle themselves from the web of sin. All along the way, they are each joined by a mysterious companion -- ever present with a loving guidance without judgement for their actions.

The more they attempt to fix their lives, the deeper they sink into chaos, pain, and loss. In addition, we discover that sin is a matrix connecting even the most remote of strangers to one another. No man is an island. One sin penetrates society like a single stone thrown into a pond. The ripple of sin grows as they affect more and more people, until it swells as a giant wave engulfing an entire city.

It is at this breaking point when we see the presence of this companion was no accident. He was the ever-loving constant who refused to abandon His people -- even when they abandoned Him.

Finally, one by one, our characters come to surrender the mess of their lives, and accept the wisdom of this mysterious stranger. He is a man with no name, no home, no beginning, no end... He simply is -- always.
