La Deuda Film

In a groundbreaking new venture, The Salvation Army has produced a short film entitled La Deuda, which has been acquired for distribution by HBO.  The Spanish-language film will appear on all HBO streaming services, including HBO Max, after making its premiere on HBO Latino on February 1st, 2021. The film was created by The Salvation Army’s Los Angeles-based multimedia team, called Share Change.

 

La Deuda is loosely based on Jesus’ Parable of the Ungrateful Servant found in the book of Matthew, chapter 18. La Deuda is a coming-of-age tale, following a young boy in his quest to save the life of his beloved pet goat.

 

“We want to showcase the continued power of Jesus’ parables and narrative storytelling to teach the universal truths we all need to understand,” said Lt. Col. Lisa Smith, Secretary for Program in The Salvation Army’s USA Western Territory.
