Description

"Standing for something" took on a whole new meaning for Mario Facione when he stood face to face with the Mob Boss of the Detroit Mafia. Realizing that he could not serve two masters, Mario asked to be allowed out - to be allowed to live - as mob hitmen stood around anxious to "put him in the pit." Facione's convictions led him to a whole new life in the gospel of Jesus Christ - one of love, Christian family life, and temple covenants. Through this documentary detailing the biography of Facione and his experiences, learn more about the man behind Mafia to Mormon and his singular life. His story is an extraordinary journey through the darkness into light.
