‘A Week Away’ cast

Monarch Media’s new release, “A Week Away: The Series,” picks up where the 2021 film left off — this time through a longer, episodic lens. The show, produced in partnership with Angel Studios, takes place at Camp Aweegaway and follows a diverse group of young people as they navigate friendships, faith and personal growth.

Alan Powell, who co-wrote the original film and serves as showrunner, says, “A Week Away has been a very personal endeavor for me from the beginning.” From Monarch Media’s side, the goal was to expand the film’s emotional world while preserving its introspective tone.

Angel Studios emphasizes that its audience-driven model fits well with this project. Jared Geesey, Angel’s Chief Distribution Officer, notes, “The Angel Guild enthusiastically approved the proof of concept torch for ‘A Week Away’ … our audience is eager to support exceptional quality entertainment that the whole family can enjoy together.”

On screen, newcomer Cozi Zuehlsdorff — added in the series adaptation — shares that she was drawn to the project because of its blend of character and belief, and mentions the influence of C. S. Lewis on the show’s spiritual themes.

The series is available now on Angel Studios’ platform, and a companion soundtrack is out on all major streaming services.
