Help Us Finish Our Film and Share the Untold Story of One Man’s Faith Journey

Our Goal is $25,000
  • We are excited to share with you an inspiring story about one man's journey of faith and perseverance. This film, which is in post-production, tells the story of a devout Palestinian Christian man who must reconcile his principles with the challenges of an unexpected, boundary-pushing stranger. It is a powerful story about the strength of faith, and we are asking for your help to finish it. With your support, we can complete post-production and share this important story with the world. Please consider donating to help us reach our goal and bring this powerful story to life. Thank you!

  • At its core, this film is about one man's journey of faith. But it's also about so much more than that. It's about the power of love, the challenges of personal growth, and the impact that unexpected encounters can have on our lives.

    As filmmakers, we believe that stories have the power to change lives. And the story of this film is no exception. By sharing Kareem's journey, we hope to inspire others to find their own path towards spiritual enlightenment. We also hope to shed light on the complexities of the political situation in Palestine, and to honor the resilience of its people in the face of adversity.

    But we can't do it without your help. We've already invested a great deal of time, energy, and resources into this project. But we still need your support to get us over the finish line. With your donation, we can ensure that this film is the best it can be, and that it reaches as many people as possible.

    So please, join us on this journey of faith, and help us bring Kareem's story to life. Together, we can create a powerful, inspiring film that touches hearts and changes lives.

  • The film tells the story of Kareem (translates to Kind from Arabic to English), a devout Christian whose life is turned upside down when he meets Theodor, a stranger in need. Kareem's faith is tested as Theodor challenges him to question his beliefs and live outside his comfort zone. Set against the backdrop of Palestine in 1948, this film explores themes of diversity, colonization, and the power of hope in times of crisis. Will Kareem be able to persevere without losing his faith, or will Theodor's presence lead to his destruction? This inspiring story is one that needs to be shared with the world.

  • We're so excited to share our film about one man's journey of faith with the world, but we need your help to make it happen. Your money will go directly towards completing the post-production phase of the project. This includes finalizing the picture lock, coloring the footage, sound mixing, and adding a score to the film. These steps are essential in bringing the film to life and making it a polished and professional final product.

    Additionally, any remaining funds will be used towards marketing and distribution, which will help us reach a larger audience and share this powerful story with more people.

    We believe that this film has the power to touch and inspire many, but we need your support to make it happen. Every dollar counts, and any amount you can give will help us get closer to our goal. With your help, we can bring this project to completion and share it with the world.

    Thank you for considering invest in our film. We truly appreciate your support and generosity.

  • There are several ways you can get involved and help us finish our film.

    First and foremost, you can donate to our crowdfunding campaign. Your donation, no matter how big or small, will help us cover the remaining costs of post-production, including editing, sound mixing, and color grading.

    In addition to donating, you can also help us spread the word about our project. Share our campaign on social media, tell your friends and family about our film, and encourage them to support us. Every little bit helps, and your support will go a long way in making this film a reality.

    Finally, if you are a filmmaker or have experience in the film industry, we would love to hear from you. We are always looking for volunteers and collaborators who can help us with post-production or provide us with valuable advice and feedback.
