A New Film from Nicholas Ma (Director and Producer of “Won’t You Be My Neighbor?”)
An Art Workshop
Join EPN for a special preview and discussion about the important new film from Nicholas Ma, Leap of Faith. Nicholas was director and a producer of the hugely popular documentary Won’t You Be My Neighbor? about Mr. Rogers and his impact.
Leap of Faith follows twelve diverse Christian leaders finding hope and fellowship at a series of boundary-breaking retreats in Michigan. These leaders struggle with today’s most contentious issues, testing their commonly held beliefs and the bonds they build over the course of a year. Inspiring and provocative, Leap of Faith explores whether we can disagree and still belong to each other in a divided world.
In this workshop you will meet the filmmakers and participants who will share about the heart of the film and their hopes for making an impact. You will also learn about the marketing plans for the film, where it is playing when it opens in theaters beginning October 4, and how you can get involved!
Panelists include:
- Nicholas Ma – Film Director, Won’t You Be My Neighbor? and Mabel; Brooklyn, New York
- Michael Gulker – President, The Collosian Forum; Grand Rapids, Michigan
- Molly Bosscher – Rector, St. Andrew’s Episcopal Church; Grand Rapids, Michigan
- Bob Berney – Chief Executive Officer, Picturehouse; Los Angeles, California
