MOVIES MOVE THE WORLD
Film is the most powerful art form in history. Science, religion, and personal experience tell us that stories have the power to take over our minds and bring us to new worlds. Movies speak to multitudes. This power can move the world to salvation or damnation.
As Pius XII taught, movies "can lead him thus to the realm of light, of the noble and beautiful, just as they can bring him under the sway of darkness and deprivation." (The Ideal Film)
WHERE ARE WE MOVING IT?
Satan has wielded this power and moved the world to the brink of destruction.
Pius XI warned that the entire mission of the Church can be undermined by "the plague of evil and pernicious motion pictures" … “Unhealthy and impure entertainment destroys the moral fiber of a nation.“ (Vigilanti Cura)
MILLIONS LEFT THE CHURCH.
BUT BILLIONS WATCH MEDIA EVERY DAY.
RECLAIM FILM FOR CHRIST
The only way to win this battle is to fight on the front lines.
By the grace of God we will succeed in three phases...
Galvanize an audience with a proprietary Movie Ratings app steeped in Catholic moral theology.
Operate a film studio dedicated to deeply faithful and highly artistic films.
Launch a film school to form the next generation of filmmakers.
The app builds the audience,
the audience funds the films,
the films train the filmmakers,
the filmmakers make the films for the built-in audience.
This cycle (audience, films, filmmakers) will lead to the goal:
BY 2045 WE WILL OUTPACE THE AUDIENCE AND REVENUE OF HOLLYWOOD SO THAT CHRIST-CENTERED FILMS BECOME THE PREDOMINANT CULTURAL FORCE.
