ELEVENTH HOUR tells a story of love against hatred, good versus evil and one man's battle against international
terrorism.
It is the producer's goal to create a story that powerfully addresses several controversial issues facing the American public, while
offering a redemptive solution through God's grace.
It will entertain, engage, and envelop the viewers
with action, drama, and suspense that will keep
them riveted to the screen!
As a group of filmmakers, we desire to follow God's leading in our business dealings
and express examples of God's grace in our films. Like any group of dedicated artists,
we seek to create media at the highest levels of excellence, incorporating the latest
technology with our talent and creativity. It's not good enough to make a cool movie,
we want to push the boundaries of cinematic storytelling, exploring the edge of our culture while keeping the audience on the edge of their seats.
