I AM MORTAL

Set 200 years in the future when the human race has achieved immortality through a genetic vaccine created by one man, The Pilot. All war, violence and crime has been eradicated, but so have certain emotions and personal choices The Pilot deemed archaic.

 

In this utopian society a small band of rebels questions if this immortal life is how humans were meant to live. They recruit a young man, Logos, who is only days away from receiving the “gift” of immortality and similarly questions The Pilot’s world. But, The Pilot sends a spy, Akae, to infiltrate the group and capture Logos. Logos leads the rebels as they attempt to overthrow the status quo and reclaim their free will—including their right to die. 


FATIMA

In breathtaking detail, the film follows the children through their supernatural experiences, which include being exposed to terrifying visions of the future and of heaven and hell, which changed them forever. The film details their courageous response during which they faced ridicule, persecution, and punishment from within their own family, their local community, and the government. Throughout they maintained their childhood innocence while also remaining true to their mission of bringing a message of peace to the world.


FATIMA the movie retains the authenticity of the original voice of this story, as reflected in interviews of the oldest shepherd, Lucia Dos Santos, the oldest of the three children later in life. The interviews show the meaning of Fatima is still relevant for all people more than a century after the original events occurred.


A SEVERE MERCY

A son of privilege, Sheldon Vanauken (Van) was listless, disconnected and seeking reason to engage adulthood in an America still ravaged by the last waves of the Great Depression. Jean Davis (Davy) was a rebel soul on her own escape from the times and the rejection of her family. When Van and Davy collide one snowy night, the sparks launch them into an epic story that would inspire millions.


While the world around them descends into the blackness of war, Van and Davy escape into a mutual love that is idyllic and even obsessive. They determine to craft a bond that can never be broken, and resolve to share every memory, good and bad, and to shut out whatever could possibly separate them.


The pair encounter C.S. Lewis on a visit to Oxford, and his humor and wisdom cause them to question their paganism. When Davy is nearly raped in a random attack, she descends into a deep struggle with the reality of the evil of the world. She finds her way out through a profound encounter with the suffering Christ. Her transformation sends Van into a spiral of confusion and anger; as he finds himself the other man in a love-triangle with the Christian God.


As Davy moves into deeper levels of holiness, a begrudged Van plays at sin. Driven by pain and love, Davy makes an offering of her life for Van and soon after she is diagnosed with a fatal illness. Terrified, Van embarks on a frantic spiritual struggle with God for his wife’s life. In the end, Van surrenders Davy into the hands of a God he has gradually come to know as Lord. His friendship with C.S. Lewis helps him to articulate the “severe mercy” that has saved his soul.


Set amidst the terrors of the attack on Pearl Harbor, in the serene blue waters of the Carribbean, and under the ivy bricks of Oxford, A Severe Mercy will be an epic cinematic project. Its universal themes of enduring love and the encounter with life changing transcendence will resound with audiences the world over.
