A baby in California is desperate for a heart transplant. A health care facility in Florida offers a model of the hospital of the future. A religion has its members living up to 10 years longer than most. It's all part of the story of an American-born faith - The Seventh-day Adventists.

The Adventists is a multi-storied documentary film that explores a church that couples a firm belief in the near Second Coming of Christ with a remarkable focus on health, wholeness and well-being. Born out of the religious fervor of the mid-19th century (portrayed here in historic reenactments), Adventists today are living longer and seemingly healthier lives, and are the subject of numerous studies to understand why.
