RECENT EVENTS (Theatrical Release Coming Soon!):

Starring Kiefer Sutherland, Robert Carlyle and Ciarán McMenamin, To End All Wars is an epic movie of courage and forgiveness based on the true-life story of World War II, 24-year-old POW Captain Ernest Gordon of the elite Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders from Scotland. Captured by the Japanese in the Burmese jungle and forced to build the infamous Railway of Death that crossed the River Kwai, Captain Gordon’s story is about the human spirit triumphing over inhumanity and the journey from the prison of self-survival to the freedom of self-sacrifice.

After the screening we will hear from producer, Jack Hafer, director/producer, David Cunningham and screenwriter, Brian Godawa.
