Big thank you to all who have funded this project! The film version is now finished, for more info visit: https://www.canaanlandmovie.com/
THANK YOU AGAIN!
Canaan Land is about a consummate charismatic con man, "Brother Billy Gantry" (played by Richard Rossi), meeting "Sister Sara," a female faith healing evangelist. Over 1,000 actresses have tried for the lead before our casting associates chose Kinght Rider star Rebecca Holden to play the lead role. Sara's a true believer.
Brother Gantry’s focus on offerings and building a bigger ministry is the antithesis of Sister Sara's hunger for God.
The film is not an attack on religion. It is our intention in exposing the counterfeit to show the search for that which is pure, lovely, true. Defensive believers may say we shouldn't expose
the counterfeit, but a counterfeit testifies that there is a truth sets us free. For more info and to see the film visit: https://www.canaanlandmovie.com
The movie is a 21st Century story from Richard Rossi's novel "CANAAN LAND". Youll find this film is a needed expose and search for authentic faith. You'll see us dramatize how frauds deceive followers into believing pastors who claim to be prophets and miracle workers worthy of donations. Some abuse the most vulnerable by implying healing is tied to giving money.
There are 30,000 denominations yet too few do what Jesus said to do: feed the hungry, clothe the naked, visit the sick and fallen (Matthew 25), judge not lest
ye be judged (Matthew 7:1), and go into a closet to pray (Matthew 6:6).
As you view this film, you'll be left to ponder questions like: Who am I following? Am I following someone real? Are they walking the walk or just talking the talk? What is the
difference between rigid religion & a healthy concept of God & the gospel?
OUR FIRST FILMS...
Two of Hollywood's Royal Families starred in "Sister Aimee." Director/Actor Ron Howard (aka "Opie" on the Andy Griffith Show &
"Richie Cunningham" on Happy Days) got in the business because of his actor-father Rance Howard who play's Aimee's father in the film. (In the trailer below he's on the horse talking to
her.)
The second member of Hollywood Royalty starring in the film is Charlie Chaplin's beautiful blonde granddaughter Kiera Chaplin. Here's the trailer from our film "Sister Aimee" to show you a
sample of prior work: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SvBovQ6Hczc
We've been blessed with wonderful collaborators and publicity on those films and our last film on hero Roberto Clemente. Here's the trailer from, "Baseball's Last Hero: 21
Clemente Stories" starring two-time Olympian Jamie Nieto as Roberto, Project Runway Winner Marilinda Rivera as his wife, and Richard Rossi as the scout "Birddog" who convinces Clemente
to play for the last place Pirates, watch by clicking HERE: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p22ueAmYRk8
We were Academy Award-considered for our first film on Aimee. We received a letter from Pope Francis about our movie on Clemente. The Clemente film was made through $15,000 raised online
through crowdfunding by Eternal Grace, our 501c3 non profit organization. Here's the letter from the Pope:
We also received a commendation from the Governor of Pennsylvania for our Roberto Clemente film:
