Short Film: New World—“First” Prayer

This is only indirectly related to the Chinese field, but maybe some of you will find it interesting. The title of this post refers to a fictional short film that depicts a Chinese-Canadian youth praying to Jehovah God for the first time since he truly developed faith in him. I and a few others shot it a few years ago, but having been busy with various things since then, I only recently finished editing and rendering versions that can be streamed or downloaded from the Internet.


While the dialogue is in English, and the subject matter is not unique to the Chinese field, the main characters are Chinese-Canadian, thus the indirect link to the Chinese field. Click on the picture below to go to a web page that contains links for viewing Small, Medium, and Large streaming versions (streaming works in Safari on the iPod touch and the iPhone), a download link for an iPod/iPhone-compatible video file version, information on requesting DVD copies, and also some additional background information regarding this project:
