Beyond the Gates of Splendor is a 2002 documentary that tells the story of five missionaries: Jim Elliot, Ed McCully, Pete Fleming, Roger Youderian and Nate Saint. In the 1950s, these five men set out to make contact and share the Christian gospel with an Ecuadorian tribe called the Huaorani. Following their martyrdom, the families of the slain men continued to reach out to the tribe, many of whom became Christians. The film chronicles the story through interviews with the wives and grown children of the missionaries, along with some Huaorani tribespeople. Parts of the movie were filmed in Ecuador.
