Breakthrough Movie

Derby Foresters Park Showcase cinema are putting on a Christian film BREAKTHROUGH (12A) from this Friday 17th May - performances daily at 7pm.  (Possibly also at the Odeon- tba).  It went to number 3 in the USA cinema charts when it opened there on Good Friday.  How will it do here?  That depends on the opening weekend box office - do go!

"'Breakthrough' is based on the inspirational true story of one mother's unfaltering love in the face of impossible odds. When Joyce Smith's adopted son John falls through an icy Missouri lake, all hope seems lost. But as John lies lifeless, Joyce refuses to give up. Her steadfast belief inspires those around her to continue to pray for John's recovery, even in the face of every case history and scientific prediction. From producer DeVon Franklin ('Miracles From Heaven') and adapted for the screen by Grant Nieporte ('Seven Pounds') from Joyce Smith's own book, 'Breakthrough' is an enthralling reminder that faith and love can create a mountain of hope, and sometimes even a miracle."



"Tremendously inspiring...A highly compelling movie"  - CBN

"'Breakthrough' is skilful enough to stir strong emotions in both devout and skeptical audiences"

"You don't have to believe in divine intervention to be moved by 'Breakthrough'"
- New York Times

You will see from the trailer that it is distributed by 20th Century Fox who have recently been taken over by Disney.  This will be the first film that Disney will be releasing under their 20th Century Fox label - great that it's a Christian one!
