Beautiful photography and scenery highlight this preachy, factually inspired 2004 film about a Vermont couple (Sam Hennings and Brenda Strong) in 1926 who moves their family (Brighton Hertford, Kimberly Varadi, Colin Ford, et al.) to western New York where their two oldest sons (Eric Johnson and Alexander Carroll) fall for the striking daughter (Tiffany Dupont) of a shopkeeper and controversial Joseph Smith (Jonathan Scarfe), the founder of Latter-Day Saints, worries his wife (Sarah Darling) and children (Ryan Wood, Jordan Rose Tarter, et al.) and causes discord among the community and families as he compiles his Book of Mormon and preaches among the faithful.
