Story for Apostasy
Sheila is a successful, middle age Jewish businesswoman who has a terminal illness. Until now Judaism has been her security blanket, but its teachings are no longer providing the comfort she seeks. A charismatic black televangelist walks of the TV screen, through Sheila's back door and into her fragile life. The choice is his arms or the arms of her daughter, her immortality. When you are about to bite the dust, do you take a bite of the apple? Do you choose forbidden fruit or the fruit of your loins? This dark comedy addresses life's ironic twists and turns.
