Шаблон:Infobox film Heaven's Rain is a 2010 American biographical drama film based on the true story of the lifelong quest of Brooks Douglass to bring his parents' killers and his sister's rapists to justice.[1] The film is directed by Paul Brown, and was written by Brown and Douglass. The film debuted at the ArcLight Cinemas in Hollywood on September 9, 2010.[2]

The title is taken from words spoken by Portia in Shakespeare's The Merchant of Venice: The quality of mercy is not strain'd, It droppeth as the gentle rain from heaven

Plot

Following missionary work on the Amazon River in Brazil, Dr. Richard Douglass moved his family to the Oklahoma City area, becoming a well-respected Baptist minister to the large congregation of Putnam City Baptist Church. His wife Marilyn was an accomplished singer and loving mother. The couple had two children, Brooks (16) and Leslie (12).[4] On October 15, 1979, two drifters, Glen Ake and Steven Hatch entered their home, and tied the parents and Brooks. The intruders took 12-year-old Leslie into the bedroom, where both men raped her. After tying up Leslie, they shot all four family members, killing the parents and leaving the two siblings for dead.

The film is a story of forgiveness as primarily viewed from the perspective of Brooks. Both Brooks and Leslie have endured through the horror of the crime, then dealing through the emotional consequences to eventually excel in their respective careers, he as a state legislator, businessman, producer and actor; she as a professional educator.[5][6]
