Ruth is one of two Moabite women who marry the sons of Elimelech and Naomi. When Elimelech and sons Mahlon and Chillion die, leaving Naomi a widow with two widowed daughters-in-law, Naomi decides to return to Israel. One daughter-in-law, Orpah, bids her goodbye. Daughter-in-law Ruth however says she will not desert her.
Can a bond of loyalty survive the wreckage of famine and sudden death? This biblical retelling follows a widow's choice to abandon her homeland for a foreign land of uncertain hope.
