Sergio
84 year old Sergio Gomez has built thousands of homes for the poor, orphanages, homes for the dying, drug rehabilitation centers, and more. His faith in action has left an amazing legacy in Tijuana, Mexico. I was fortunate enough to be asked to document him for three days for Heritage Films with producer Dave Hansow, then edit a short proof of concept video. Madison Dyer was the colorist. The hope is that there will eventually be a documentary made about Sergio. To learn more go to www.sergiomovie.com

Hope in the Holy Land
An American Christian with a deep love for Israel sets off on a journey across the Holy Land to confront his indifference toward the Palestinians and to search for the deeper truths behind one of the most perplexing and polarizing conflicts in the world. Along the way, he discovers the painful struggles of Jews, Muslims and Christians on both sides of the conflict. The result is an enlightening journey that exposes viewers to perspectives rarely seen in the media, and a challenge to a man’s heart to love his enemy.
