What is 168? The 168 Film Project is a worldwide production competition, which challenges filmmakers to make a short film in 168 hours, based on randomly-selected Bible verses. Are you up for this? Over 300 films from 20 countries have been created in 6 years.
This year's 168 Jury includes X-MEN Producer, Ralph Winter and THE PURSUIT OF HAPPYNESS Exec. Producer, Mark Clayman.
Imagine hearing a message of faith that doesn't sound cheesy or preachy?
What if network TV and radio and the web didn't segregate the words of Jesus in one place and the words of the world in another?
What if there was a bridge between these two worlds--at the Sundance Film Festival for example?
The 168 Film Project, Pastor Doug Folsom and St. John's Anglican Church are proud to bring you "168-Dance."
