On June 17, 2015 nine members of the Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church in Charleston were were murdered by a white supremacist who targeted their Bible study because they were African American. Now, four years later, the documentary Emanuel<\/em><\/a> tells the story of the shooting in a unique way, highlighting the faith of the loved ones left behind.<\/p>\n

Rose Simmons is one of those loved ones. Her father, Reverend Daniel Simmons, a retired minister and dedicated member of the church, was the last victim of the shooting. Simmons, who began her work on the film as a family member, went on to part of the film team because of her passion and dedication to the project.<\/p>\n

The documentary, produced by basketball star Stephen Curry and award-winning actress Viola Davis, is about much more than a horrifying act of violence. Although it focuses on the history of Charleston and the African Methodist Episcopal Church, the story is ultimately about forgiveness<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Less than two days after the shooting, many of the families of victims spontaneously forgave the perpetrator in court. Their faith inspired a nation. For Simmons, who has said<\/a> she prayed for the perpetrator during his trial, forgiveness has been essential.<\/p>\n

\u201cForgiveness for me is freedom<\/a>,\u201d Simmons told Guideposts.org.<\/em> \u201cIt is the freedom to remember the great things about my father\u2026I can speak about my father, I can speak about the perpetrator, and I can sleep at night.\u201d<\/p>\n

The director, Brian Ivie, said that faith and forgiveness are what set this documentary apart from other retellings of the Charleston shooting.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere have been other attempts to tell this story,\u201d Ivie told the Charleston Scene<\/em>.<\/a> \u201cMany of them do mention forgiveness, but I also think what separates our telling from all the others is our theological understanding of where that forgiveness comes from. And that is the cross of Jesus Christ.\u201d<\/p>\n

Simmons agrees, adding that although she always had a strong faith, since losing her father she has found an even closer relationship with God.<\/p>\n

\u201cI was blessed supernaturally with that gift to forgive almost instantly,\u201d she said. \u201cI think what this has done [for] me is given me what I need to live out the Word and live out those tough Scriptures,\u201d Simmons said.<\/p>\n

Simmons is currently at work on another documentary about her father\u2019s life.<\/p>\n

\u201cI want to talk more about his life and his accomplishments and who he was\u2026 [so] those that live on after me will know who he was,\u201d Simmons said.<\/p>\n
