Aaron is a boy of twelve, living a life of poverty in Arabia during the time of Christ. One day, while Aaron is attending the market place with his family, his father is approached by a Roman soldier seeking to buy Aaron for a small bag of silver. Aaron now belongs to the soldier. His job is to attend the soldier’s sheep. One day, while Aaron is tending his flock, the sheep are attached by a band of wolves. When he returns home, the soldier accuses him of selling the missing sheep and Aaron is beaten badly and sent out into the desert, alone. There he is attacked by a bear and falls over a cliff where he is struck blind. He is now destined to live in darkness until destiny brings him face to face with a man about to be crucified.
