Don Piper is a baptist minister who has everything to live for; a wonderful wife and three kids, and a promising career; but his life is about to change forever during a trip back home from Texas. In a horrific road accident which saw a truck hit his car, he sustains apparently fatal injuries and is pronounced dead immediately by first responders. Hoping for a miracle, a fellow pastor on the scene prays for him, and to his joyous surprise, realises that Piper has come back to them. He wakes up critically injured, but that's the least of it; he also has a remarkable story to tell of being deceased for 90 minutes. As he slipped away, he claims he caught a glimpse of heaven, and that's something he finds incredibly difficult to let go upon regaining consciousness. He's ready to die, but his friends and family are not going to let that happen. Through the power of prayer, he is brought forth from the brink of death once again.
'90 Minutes In Heaven' is based on the memoirs of the real Don Piper, who documented his experiences of January 18th 1989 in a 2004 book with Cecil Murphey, which became an international success and a remained on the New York Times best-seller list for five years. The film has been directed and written by Michael Polish ('The Astronaut Farmer', 'Twin Falls Idaho'), with all profits from it going to several charities. The movie is set to be released on September 11th 2015.
