Creators of 'Saratov Approach' to Release Second 'Religious Thriller'

In April, the makers of "The Saratov Approach" will release a second film featuring missionaries of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in what director Garrett Batty calls another "religious thriller."

The film, titled "Freetown," is based on a true story of several Liberian missionaries who were caught in the middle of a civil war while serving in their native country in 1990.

Batty came upon the story while searching through LDS Church archives, discovering microfilm that contained interviews with the missionaries.
