WINNER!
This is the very intersection where the events took place which we're depicting in our short documentary film "The Door."
"The Door" - a 168 Film Project Documentary
This short film documentary tells the amazing true story of real events when one father, who loves his daughter dearly, turned a tragedy into an opportunity to stand before a frowing crowd and share the love of God the Father.
​
My desire for this short film is to inspire, share the gospel of Jesus Christ, and perhaps bring some healing to this community that witnessed this event in 2012.
