The film had the highest per-screen average in its first opening weekend, grossing $50,601 in a limited U.S. theatrical release (5 screens). The film won approval from Sony Pictures Entertainment, which acquired multi-territory distribution rights of the film in February 2005. Sony also released the film on DVD in North America in August 2005.

“Come, thou long-expected Jesus,
born to set thy people free;

let us find our rest in thee.”
