The story that launched the Kendrick Brothers’ global film ministry returns, now reimagined by Brazilian filmmakers under the Kendricks’ direct guidance. This new film release is in response to the Kendrick Brothers’ growing impact in Brazil. During a promotional tour for their most-recent movie, THE FORGE, which opened #1 in Brazil, the Kendrick Brothers connected with churches, pastors, and filmmakers who shared their hopes and prayers for locally rooted, faith-driven movies. From those conversations, a Brazilian FLYWHEEL remake was born.

Set in Rio de Janeiro, the new film FLYWHEEL: IGNITION OF THE SOUL follows Noah Silva, a smooth-talking, used-car salesman whose “do whatever it takes” approach to business and life begins to unravel at home and at work. After a series of wake-up calls, Noah is forced to confront the cost of his choices. He begins a difficult and deeply personal journey to restore his integrity while trying to win back the hearts of his wife and son.

Filmed on location in Brazil, FLYWHEEL: IGNITION OF THE SOUL releases in the U.S. exclusively in theatres beginning October 16. The movie, which includes Alex Kendrick in the cast, was produced in Portuguese and will be dubbed and subtitled in English for North American audiences.
