Alabaster

Alabaster is the story of a man walking the road to forgiveness. Ethan, a small-time criminal with no family or friends, wakes up one day to find a mysterious invitation. For reasons unknown to even himself, he starts on the long path to Alabaster. Along the way Ethan meets an interesting cast of characters who each in there own way shed light on his troubled past, forcing him to take responsibility for what he has done and the people he has hurt. Just when the end is in sight Ethan begins to realize where this journey might end and the truth behind this magical place of Alabaster. But is he ready for redemption?

Directed by Brandon McCormick, Alabaster leans on a strong ensemble — Josh Tyson, Daniel Burnley, Courtney Alexander — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 2007.
