Just an ok film about a father torn between his parental responsibilities, his work, and his many other interests, mainly to do with the church. His son wants a new fishing rod, but he doesnt know whether he can get it for his son AND do that church budget meeting. Dad gets pamphlets about Church Missions, and then somehow, some way, the movie becomes a shill of why the Christian church has these missions, It's a sort of a slag, but interesting at all the areas they seemed to be focusing on, mainly in Japan and India. The movie is sort of spotty, and not all that good.
