That's The Savior, a 2014 Bulgarian-Jordanian film about the life of Jesus by an Arabic cast. To know how they made this film, we talked with John Dorr, The Savior producer. Dorr shares how they bring to life the story in a way to address Muslims to share what Christians believe and not to impose an idea that created the audience to feel identified as Dorr explains through different stories.
Dorr reflected on his childhood living in the middle east and how his mother's profession, author of novels and biblical historical books, changed and marked his approach to historical characters. About another filmography, Dorr tells us how they structure their films and for what and the importance of the decision to stick to chronological order. In addition, some stories during filming and a great date about the dub in English audio and future plans.

What causes poverty? It's a question that persists through time, but to have a real and meaningful response that changes this, we need to shift our idea of poverty and charity and start asking the right questions: What causes wealth?
To understand the implications of poverty and its solution, we talk with Michael Matheson Miller, host and producer of the six-part series Poverty Cure and the documentary Poverty Inc. This project, a series of 200 interviews and a documentary, was intended to create a resource with answers from different voices and perspectives, including philosophical and theological thinking about the problems of aids and the dominant humanitarianism that prevents prosperity, creating dependency instead.
Michael Matheson Miller shares the consequences of the current humanitarian work related to the delayed development of business and the problem of what has been institutionalized as humanitarianism and reflects on the last through the Scriptures. In addition, it explains the importance of the difference between having a heart for the poor vs. having a mind for the poor related to crucial things. Finally, it also explains the importance of the rule of law, having a solid institution of law, and private property as the base of sustainability development.
“When we give charity or foreign aid, we disempower local producers and harm economy and create dependency.”

“Every child deserves the opportunity to live in a family”; this is the message from Robert Glover, a former footballer, who moved to Shanghai with his wife and six young children in 1998 to introduce the first foster care system in China. Glover fostered five out of over a million children that were placed in foster families, and shares their experiences in Children of Shanghai. This documentary is narrated by Bear Grylls and follows through their life experiences while teaching about this new concept that challenges social convention in a country with a one-child policy.
Glover shares his story and how he had to face the decision to change his life and move to another country and culture. With plenty of professional and cultural challenges that he and his family had to overcome, food gave them the chance to have a cultural exchange and the opportunity to build a trusting relationship with the Chinese government. On his way to empower and encourage himself to make a better life for children, many obstacles needed to be overcome - including an element of resistance from older generations while interest was being shown by younger generations when playing football. This changed the impression about him and his goals in China with those around him.Is Jesus really coming? This is a question that most people ask in desire for proof of this second coming.

Director Brent Miller Jr. shares his journey of curiosity in the desire for more evidence of the truth that leads him into the faith and known the bible “as a genuine source of history and spiritually true” and shares what event shook him profoundly to start this path. Also talks about the damage of removing prophecy, of taking eschatology out of the context.
Before The Wrath had to deal with some obstacles through pre-production and even delay the premiere to the first weeks of the pandemic. Brent Miller Jr. shares the way of these events and the technical decisions as to the mood of aesthetic to match the topic in the film. Don´t miss his final thoughts and advice for filmmakers.
