"How far would you go to prove you're not a nobody?"
Streetwise but down-on-his-luck, Clarence is struggling to find a better life for his family, while fighting to free himself of debt. Captivated by the power and glory of the rising Messiah and His apostles, he risks everything to carve his own path to a divine life, and ultimately discovers that the redemptive power of belief may be his only way out.

FULL SPOILER-FREE REVIEW @ https://fandomwire.com/the-book-of-clarence-bfi-london-film-festival-review-hilarious-thought-provoking-biblical-satire/
"The Book of Clarence certifies Jeymes Samuel as a do-it-all in filmmaking. Whether through his stylized direction, thought-provoking satirical screenplay, or bold soundtrack, the filmmaker once again delivers a highly original, genuinely hilarious blend of genres and tones, and a captivating spiritual exploration of the protagonist.
Fortunate as well to have an absolutely superb cast with LaKeith Stanfield commanding the troops, delivering an impressively all-round performance. It lacks better tonal balance and more unpredictability, the latter being destroyed by an unnecessary opening sequence.
Glad to know it will be released on the big screen, which is where I definitely recommend everyone to go and experience this piece of guaranteed entertainment."
