“Unsung Hero” depicts emigration’s challenges and successes.

On Friday, the film “Unsung Hero” will be released in theaters across the United States. This movie tells the tale of how Rebecca St. James, a performer for King & Country, became successful in the music industry after her parents left Australia and moved to the United States.

Have you ever been in a circumstance in which you felt as though everything that would have been possible to go wrong actually did? In all candor, I felt exactly the same way I did the previous week when I forgot my phone at home and misplaced the charger for my MacBook at the same time, and as a result, I missed a coffee date with a buddy. If you are able to empathize with this, the opening scene of “Unsung Hero” presents a scenario that you might regard to be comparable, albeit with a little more intense level of intensity.

When David Smallbone, a talent manager, discovers that his career is taking a turn for the worse, he makes a daring decision and relocates from Australia to the United States with his pregnant wife, Helen, and their five young children. In Nashville, the family arrives at an apartment that is not equipped after being detained by customs, missing a flight, and using a train to get there. To put the cherry on top of everything, David is unemployed the following morning, which means that the family’s planned brief stay in the United States will now be their permanent residence.

Without a doubt, this movie is compelling on an emotional level. “Unsung Hero” brings the Smallbones, the family of the award-winning singing duet For King & Country, down to earth and effectively displays the humanity of each character. In a society where we admire our heroes and readily assume that celebrities do not encounter any personal issues, “Unsung Hero” brings the Smallbones down to earth. Throughout the course of the movie, the family is shown making new acquaintances, beginning a business that provides lawn care and house cleaning services, welcoming a new younger sister, and experiencing their first seasons of vacation in the United States.

During the time that well-meaning family friends supply David with a vehicle, pay for his medical costs, and provide Christmas presents for his children, David struggles with feelings of both guilt and pride. He wants to prevent his daughter, Rebecca, from going through a similar humiliation since she is adamant on trying out for a record label that is owned by one of the family’s house cleaning clients, which is causing tension in their relationship. Eventually, David comes to the realization that he has been concentrating on himself throughout his entire life, when he ought to have been concentrating on the Lord and his family. This realization comes after David has experienced the death of his father, reached his lowest point, and given up all chance of establishing a successful life in the United States.

I had a great connection to the characters during the entirety of “Unsung Hero.” Having come from a large family myself and having moved several times throughout my childhood, I was able to empathize with the characters’ feelings of uncertainty and tension, the difficulties of living in close quarters with limited resources, the secondhand embarrassment from silly “family things” such as singing a special song to thank the Lord for their food, and ultimately, the love and support they had for one another through it all.

I found myself particularly relating to Rebecca, who is a fearless dreamer who tirelessly pursues her dreams, who sees past the immediate needs of her family to what could eventually be, and who struggles against all odds in order to finally do great things. Personally, I was a songwriter throughout my entire time in high school, and I also had the desire of playing music professionally. Despite the fact that those aspirations did not come true, I will always have a soft spot in my heart for individuals who are pursuing their dreams with determination, whether they be as composers, musicians, or dreamers.

Another positive component of “Unsung Hero” is the way in which the film makes many references to the significant role that the local church plays throughout the narrative. At the conclusion of the movie, the real Rebecca St. James and Luke Smallbone make an appearance and reiterate the significance of the local church in their family’s lives. Additionally, viewers are encouraged to make a donation to Compassion International, an organization that provides local churches all over the world with the resources necessary to assist children who are living in underprivileged conditions.

The storyline of the movie left me feeling dissatisfied, despite the fact that it had a powerful emotional appeal and the characters were understandable to me. There was nothing about “Unsung Hero” that actually shocked me, despite the fact that I enjoy story twists and unexpected endings. There was a high degree of predictability in every aspect of the story, including the impoverishment and the inconveniences, the miraculous provision and the unexpected generosity, as well as the final success and personal development of every member of the family. The fact that this is a factual story means that life itself cannot be evaluated; nevertheless, the manner in which it is presented can be evaluated. This is not necessarily anything that I would regard to be a failure on the part of the filmmakers since, at the end of the day, I find that excessive creative liberties in this kind of picture upset me more than a plot that is straightforward.

There is a good chance that “Unsung Hero” is not the movie for you if you are searching for something that is original, creative, and that will keep you on the edge of your seat. If, on the other hand, you are searching for a film that is emotionally engaging, that rapidly makes you connect with the characters, and that makes you cheer for them, and that might perhaps reveal something to you about your own family or faith, then “Unsung Hero” is the perfect film for you.

In addition to being a senior majoring in Social Work, Esther Fultz is also the Off Campus Editor for Cedars. Spending time with friends, going thrift shopping, making coffee, and discovering new locations are some of her favorite things to do when she is not writing or editing for Cedars.

A preview of the film “Unsung Hero” was recently made available to me, and I took complete advantage of it. During the course of the film, I became aware that I was witnessing another family recount a tale that was similar to my own.

The documentary titled “Unsung Hero” chronicles the genuine experiences of David and Helen Smallbone, who are the parents of Rebecca St. James, a Christian music singer, as well as Luke and Joel Smallbone, who are featured in the television show For King & Country. David was the proprietor of a prosperous music firm in Australia during the early 1990s. However, his company went out of business due to a tour that did not do well. They were deprived of all they valued. With their six children (and one more on the way! ), they relocated to Nashville, Tennessee, more than halfway across the globe, in the hopes of finding a new career that never materialized. Following that, the movie reveals what took place.

Both Rich and I are creative professionals who spent twenty years in California constructing and operating a fine art photo lab. Although we do not work in the music industry, we are both creative workers. 1997 marked the beginning of our company, which was initially established in a wooden desk located in a spare bedroom of our home in Yosemite Valley. At the time, we were employed at The Ansel Adams Gallery. across the course of its existence, we employed dozens upon dozens of workers and distributed hundreds of thousands of prints to customers located all across the country. The prints that we created are still displayed in some of the most famous photo collections and galleries in the world, including the Smithsonian Institution.
