The Mission, trailer

In 2018, a shocking event made headlines around the world: a young American missionary, John Chau, was killed by arrows while attempting to contact one of the worlds most isolated Indigenous peoples on remote North Sentinel Island. Through exclusive interviews and with unprecedented access to Chaus secret plans, personal diaries, and video archives, The Mission examines the mythology of exploration that inspired him, the evangelical community that supported his quest, and reveals his own fathers heartbreak as Chaus youthful thirst for adventure became a fatal obsession. directed by Amanda McBaine, Jesse Moss, 2023
