CHRISTIAN FILMS IN DULUTH.
LET'S CHANGE THAT.

No Christian films
There's horror, romance, even "Christmas films..." but there's
no Christian films.
Movies are getting made in Duluth, but there's a problem.
Lack of Support
It's frustrating. Films require support. Without support, they can't be made.
Forced to Settle
We shouldn't have to settle for movies that don't reflect our values in the local film scene.
We understand how important it is to
see our faith represented in film.

Our first project, Rewind (Short Film | 2025) got shot on a shoestring budget, premiered at Zinema 2, and brought people to Christ. The film was about teens, drugs, and God - ultimately resolving in asking Jesus Christ to forgive them, come into their hearts, and get a fresh take on life with Christ by their side.

Duluth doesn't have any Christian films...
I decided to do something about that.

Expense breakdown:
We want to properly compensate the talented individuals who are dedicating their time, skill, and creativity to this project. Paying fair wages allows us to attract and retain a professional team who can help us achieve the highest standard of storytelling.
Long days on set require proper meals and craft services. This ensures our team is taken care of, energized, and able to give their best throughout the film.
Securing the right filming locations is vital to setting the tone and atmosphere of the story. These funds will go toward renting spaces that align with our creative vision.
To run a safe and legal production, we need proper permits and insurance coverage. This not only protects the cast and crew but also ensures smooth, professional operations.
The right costumes and set details are essential for creating an authentic and immersive world on screen.
Film productions often face unexpected expenses. Setting aside a small contingency fund ensures we can adapt and keep the project on track.
