We are less than two weeks away from shooting our first film project, and the progress so far has been incredible. We have seventeen cast members confirmed, a growing list of extras, and five locations locked in for filming.
This project did not come from nowhere. It came from years of standing close to people who are struggling, watching the need grow, and seeing how often the most vulnerable among us are the first to be forgotten and the first to be blamed.
Every day through Love Beyond Walls, we are in community with people carrying weight most of us will never have to carry.
This film is one more way of telling their stories with dignity. And each day I wake up, the urgency in my heart to tell these stories only grows.
As we head into the final stretch, we would love to have a few more hands join us, specifically a couple more Production Assistants, someone to help with makeup, and a few more hands for set design.
We are moving forward and completing this film, and we are hoping to hold our first screening later this year.
Thank you to every person rooting for us and believing in this work. We feel your support, and it means more than you know.
