Peirasmos

Directed by Bisong Taiwo

Logline: When temptation takes form, every movement becomes a struggle between surrender and control.

Synopsis: Peirasmos takes its name from the Greek word for “temptation,” a word that has echoed through Scripture and across centuries of human struggle. The film was born from my contemplation of sin as a living presence that moves through every generation and every soul.
