The Torchlighters: The William Tyndale Story in Bloomington, MN

This unusual short caters to Christian viewers, with an animated retelling of the life story of famed 16th Century scholar and Bible translator William Tyndale (1494-1536). The program dramatizes Tyndale's efforts to subversively combat the rulings of evil King Henry VIII, who has made it illegal to speak, write or read Scripture in English. As a result, Henry summons his bounty hunters and forces them to track down and capture Tyndale at any cost - little realizing that even if he succeeds, Tyndale's work will spread to countless generations of Christian believers.
