draft
Look & feel: Reverent, cinematic, period-accurate ancient American setting. Naturalistic warm daylight that shifts to dramatic firelight at the martyrdom. Abinadi's countenance shines with light when he testifies. Earthy palette, stone and textiles, restrained and dignified — not sensational. 16:9.
