But the angel said to them,
“Do not be afraid. I bring you good news that will cause great job for all the people”
Luke 2:10
THE TRUE MEANING OF CHRISTMAS
We plan to shoot “CHRISTMAS EVE” – the high-profile movie that tells incredible true stories of people who found Christ on Christmas Eve around the world. There has never been an evangelical Christmas movie that puts ‘Christ’ back into Christmas.
We will also have a well-known cast matched with Tim Chey, the award-winning producer/ director of “Freedom”, “20 Minutes”, “The Firing Squad” and 13 other films. We start filming April 8, 2025.
The budget of the film is $5.5 million of which we’ve raised $2 million. The film will look like a $40 million dollar film through the use of proprietary A.I. visual effects from Austria. We are seeking to raise the final $3.5 million to produce this groundbreaking film. Our goal is to take the film out to 1,500 theaters nationwide this year on November 7, 2025.
If there was ever a time to catch ‘lightning in a bottle’, it’s now. This is definitely the season for faith-movies without any doubt. And this is the first truly Christian Christmas movie.
We believe “CHRISTMAS EVE” will be an instant classic and will finally be a movie that will show the true meaning of Christmas which is Salvation to the world through Christ.
Please call us or email us if you know any investors. We can give a 5% finder’s fee and a share of the profits as well as producer credits. We promise this will be one of the most rewarding experiences of your lifetime.
