Summary
A tempest of ambition and moral decay, 'The Power Within' charts the unraveling of Job Armstrong, a self-made shipbuilder whose hubris blinds him to the rot festering within his empire. As his daughter's husband, the duplicitous Count Bazaine, orchestrates a coup with foreign gold, Armstrong's world fractures under the weight of murder, betrayal, and spiritual desolation. The film's crescendo arrives not in triumph, but in a haunting interplay of divine intervention and human frailty, where a flicker of grace pierces the shadows of his despair.
Synopsis
Millionaire shipbuilder Job Armstrong has built his company up from nothing, and believes that his own abilities are more than enough to make him even richer and more successful, despite being reminded of the biblical story of the man who shares his first name. It comes to pass that his son-in-law, Count Bazaine, is being paid by a foreign power to gain control of the shipyards, and stops at nothing, including murder, to do so. After a series of tragedies and deaths of his loved ones, caused by Bazaine, Armstrong is in the depths of despair when a higher power shows him a glimmer of hope among his misery.
