In Christmas with The Chosen: Holy Night, the movie tells the intertwining story of two individuals who are marginalized and stigmatized by society. One is a young mother named Mary, and the other is a shepherd boy named Benjamin. Both of them find themselves labeled as impure or unclean, which isolates them from the rest of their community.
Mary, a young and unmarried woman, becomes pregnant with Jesus, the Son of God. This news is met with skepticism and judgment from her community, as she is perceived as having defied societal norms and engaged in premarital relations. Mary feels the weight of these labels as she struggles to understand her place in this divine plan.
On the other hand, Benjamin, a shepherd boy, is considered unclean due to his profession and social status. He lives a life of solitude, isolated from the rest of society. Despite his isolation, Benjamin has a pure heart and a deep longing for connection and purpose.
As the story unfolds, both Mary and Benjamin experience divine encounters that illuminate their journeys. They individually encounter Jesus, whose birth brings hope, love, and redemption. Through their eyes, the audience witnesses the profound impact that Jesus' birth has on their lives and on all of humanity.
Together, Mary and Benjamin find solace and strength in their shared experiences. They see beyond each other's labels and connect on a spiritual level, recognizing the transformative power of Jesus' birth.
Christmas with The Chosen: Holy Night combines the narratives of The Messengers and The Shepherd, two separate stories from The Chosen series, into one remastered and re-scored movie. Through this blend, the film aims to showcase the unwavering faith, resilience, and love that can be found even in the most marginalized and judged individuals.
