Witnesses

For nearly 200 years, skeptics and critics have attempted to explain away what David Whitmer, Oliver Cowdery and Martin Harris claimed -- that they had seen angels and hefted golden metal plates containing ancient inscriptions. The film shows the early history of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and explores how Harris, Cowdery and Whitmer became known as the Three Witnesses and how, to their dying days, they defended their testimonies even when faced with threatening mobs, ridicule, and betrayal by friends and family.
