00:00Did God save you?
00:01I can't explain it.
00:03Hi, I'm Minnie Driver, and I'm playing Sarah in The Faithful.
00:06Action!
00:07The Faithful are stories from the book of Genesis.
00:10I really jumped at the chance of telling a story I've never told before.
00:13I am too old to bear a child.
00:15Nothing is impossible for our God.
00:19Telling these stories from the purview of women is new and wonderful.
00:23To me, Sarah is the most beloved matriarch in the Bible
00:26because she really was right there at the beginning.
00:29If you need me to do this, then we'll go with you.
00:31She's trying to start a family and is unable to have children.
00:35I failed you, Abram.
00:36No.
00:37Your bloodline ends with me.
00:39Sarah not being able to have children is a source of deep pain.
00:42We did what you asked, and nothing!
00:45My work stays closed!
00:47I ask Hagar if she will bear a child for me and Abraham.
00:51Hagar, I want you to have Abram's child on my behalf.
00:54They become bound forever.
00:57Your son, how can I ever repay you?
01:01Anytime you're playing a character that people are really familiar with, that's a great responsibility.
01:06Minnie is incredible.
01:07She inhabited her character in a brilliant way.
01:10I love both my sons.
01:12They each have a different path.
01:13It was so beautiful to see the relationship of Sarah and Abraham come to life.
01:19You are my wife, and no other.
01:22What can you say about Minnie Driver that hasn't already set an icon?
01:25Sarah is so strong and so brave.
01:28Feels vital and important to be part of that kind of storytelling.
01:32Surely nothing is impossible for God.
01:34You are my wife.
01:36You
