Death Sound

A former UFC fighter passionate about helping the needy breaks away from his church to rescue an entire village in Pakistan from a mysterious evil that threatens its survival.
Former UFC Fighter Nic Jake meets with Gregory, the head of his religious organization in Coos Bay, Oregon. He discovers a dark side of Gregory through a stack of unread letters held in a small box right by Gregory's office trash can.
Gregory receives and trashes over the years letters written by a small girl called Eliza from the Village of Chika Thumb in Pakistan, asking for his organization's help to fight an evil that threatens and rules their lives. Chika Thumb is a village where love, romance, good eating, God, and the freedom to leave are forbidden by a certain supernatural being that kills anyone who breaks the rule.
Nic reports to Gregory's office for a routine meeting and discovers a heap of Eliza's letters by the trash can; none is opened or read. He picks up one of the envelopes and reads a letter that reveals the tragedies and bondage of the Village of Chika Thumb.
Gregory enters the office and rages at Nic for touching the letters. He condemned Nic as a sinner who knows nothing about help. Nic gets frustrated at Gregory's refusal to help the Pakis and his unwellness to read the letters they've sent. He walked out of the building and later got hit by a hit-and-run truck.
Nic has an out-of-body experience and meets Jesus Christ. Jesus asks Nic, "is my work done?" and as Nic says, "No," he returns to his body at the hospital.
Nic travels to Chika Thumb in Pakistan and meets Eliza, who he had seen in euphoria during his out-of-body experience. Eliza takes him to her house and offers him a room. Later introduced him to Gonleh, the elder of the village. Gonleh is later killed by the evil being for preaching.
Eliza secretly falls in love with Nic but remains careful not to be killed by the evil being. Nic gathers the entire village and stages a spiritual revival in defiance of the evil being. The being appears and attacks Nic; they get locked up into a brutal fight that defeats the being and set the people free.
Eliza hugs and kisses Nic; the entire village is free to once more love, kiss, and worship, and people can now leave the town if they want.
