“The judges are stacked against them, but the greatest debate will happen before they ever enter the courtroom.”
Here’s what the distributor says about their film: “‘For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb’ (Psalm 139:13).
With his mother a lawyer and his father a professor, Caleb Hogan has grown up understanding the importance of stating his case, backing it with facts, and choosing what’s right… Come What May.
This ability has served him well in his internship at his mother’s law firm and it has guided him to the college with the best Moot Court team. But has it prepared him to deal with the collision-course elements of the most important legal issue of our time?
When does life really begin?
Coming face-to-face with the realities and legalities of the abortion issue—both in preparation for the National Moot Court championship and as his mother prepares to argue a high-profile case before the Supreme Court—Caleb must decide what he truly believes.
Wherever he lands will have consequences. If he takes the pro-life argument, he stands to lose the most important competition of his life—and the support of his mother. If he follows his mother’s lead, he could win the coveted title… but lose the heart of his teammate Rachel in the process.
Along with her professor and classmates, Rachel not only understands the strength of the pro-life arguments, she believes them to her core. Life, from its beginning, exists to honor God. For Rachel, that plays out in her Moot Court arguments and in her daily life.
Can Caleb find that same conviction? Can he win the heart of Rachel in the process? While compromise might be the easiest solution, it could also be the most dangerous.
‘Come What May’ is a reminder that choosing what’s right is never easy… but it’s always worth the cost.”

“Come What May” plays out more like a Lifetime movie-of-the-week than an actual movie. It’s about as cheaply produced as cardboard, as so are the one-dimension characters whom we care nothing about. The cast is mostly made up of newcomers who have no prior acting experience, and shows that they should go back to their day job (whatever it may entail).See all »

Topics that stand out in a positive way: Honesty, Integrity, Dating, and Marriage. I particularly enjoy Rachel’s stand for purity in her relationship with Caleb. Not riding in the same car alone. Not holding hands. That is some great stuff that teenagers need to “get” and not something they are getting in the media these days. While the husband and wife have issues in their marriage, they are committed to making it work. We need more movies like this!
