Video Description:<\/h2>\n
Mercy Forward is a story about the awesome power of Christ’s mercy when it is manifest through His children. In this film, we watch as one unusual act of mercy sparks a domino effect causing even more merciful acts to follow until it comes full circle in a surprising way. Mercy Forward gives a final call to action by telling the audience to: “Pass it on.”<\/div>\n

Filmmaker Bio:<\/strong> Mark-Anthony Jimenez is a young independent filmmaker from Birmingham AL. Filmmaking is his passion, but it is also his way of sharing the Good News with those who may have never seen the awesome beauty of Christ portrayed in film. “It is my goal,” says Jimenez, “to continue to uplift audiences around the world with beautiful, purpose-driven entertainment that strikes down barriers and reaches the deepest crevices of the heart.”<\/p>\n

Filmmaking Advice:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Mercy Forward was truly a growing experience for me, (Mark-Anthony Jimenez) both as a filmmaker and a Catholic. It was a challenge to complete, and it was only accomplished through the Grace of God. One of the important, and particularly challenging, aspects of this film is the fact that it is a silent film. It was important for me to convey this message of mercy by focusing on actions rather than words. I was very blessed to have a talented and patient cast who worked with me to bring this story to life with each of their incredible performances.<\/div>\n
