Synopsis
In a port town on the edge of a galaxy far, far away (well Wales, actually) two brothers have established a Star Wars-based belief system that claims 3,000 followers. Still living at home, Daniel (22) and Brandon’s (28) galactic aspirations are in stark contrast to their small-town surroundings. And while Daniel revels in the media attention, local ridicule has forced Brandon to step-down from the High Council. A domestic portrait about faith, family and future, “At Home with the Jedi” meets the young founders of the UK’s newest religion and reveals an extraordinary family whose hopes of salvation extend far beyond the world as we know it...
