0:00:00.240 --> 0:00:05.120
<v Speaker 1>Hello, my friends, Welcome back. Welcome to another episode of

0:00:05.480 --> 0:00:09.760
<v Speaker 1>Love Someone with Delilah. I'm so glad you are joining me.

0:00:10.680 --> 0:00:15.400
<v Speaker 1>I could not have chosen two more perfect guests to

0:00:15.480 --> 0:00:18.799
<v Speaker 1>have on this springtime I have been a huge fan

0:00:18.880 --> 0:00:21.480
<v Speaker 1>of the series. This is us. I don't know if

0:00:21.480 --> 0:00:25.320
<v Speaker 1>fan is the right word. I'm addicted. It's my guilty pleasure.

0:00:25.920 --> 0:00:29.360
<v Speaker 1>I love all of the characters, but I especially love

0:00:29.920 --> 0:00:34.760
<v Speaker 1>Kate Pearson. When I heard that the actress that plays

0:00:35.120 --> 0:00:38.919
<v Speaker 1>Kate Pearson was starring in a movie called Breakthrough, I

0:00:38.960 --> 0:00:40.879
<v Speaker 1>had to get in touch with her. I had to

0:00:40.960 --> 0:00:44.080
<v Speaker 1>invite her to come and chat with me. Little did

0:00:44.120 --> 0:00:47.280
<v Speaker 1>I know that this interview would come with a bonus guest,

0:00:47.479 --> 0:00:53.680
<v Speaker 1>because the producer of the movie Breakthrough is also joining us,

0:00:54.160 --> 0:00:57.120
<v Speaker 1>and he is also somebody that I am so geeked

0:00:57.360 --> 0:01:02.240
<v Speaker 1>to meet. I can barely contain my excitement because though

0:01:02.280 --> 0:01:06.960
<v Speaker 1>we have never met, I've actually worked for him in

0:01:07.000 --> 0:01:10.840
<v Speaker 1>the past. Let's meet my guest right now with me

<v Speaker 3>Well, the feeling is so mutual. I can't even tell you.

<v Speaker 3>like Delilah. I'm like wait like Delilah, Slilah. Yeah, yeah, yeah, And.

0:01:59.040 --> 0:02:02.600
<v Speaker 1>I'm like Christy, oh my, Chrissy, I love you, but

0:02:02.720 --> 0:02:05.760
<v Speaker 1>I hate that you make me cry so much.

0:02:06.600 --> 0:02:08.200
<v Speaker 3>You know, I know that you love to hate that

0:02:08.400 --> 0:02:10.960
<v Speaker 3>and you hate it. I do. I get it.

0:02:11.080 --> 0:02:13.920
<v Speaker 1>I have not had television in my house for over

0:02:13.960 --> 0:02:16.800
<v Speaker 1>twenty years. Wow, I haven't had TV in my house.

0:02:16.840 --> 0:02:20.360
<v Speaker 1>So I have to have my teenagers show me how

0:02:20.400 --> 0:02:25.280
<v Speaker 1>to get to you. And I gotta be honest, it's

0:02:25.280 --> 0:02:28.480
<v Speaker 1>my guilty pleasure. And I save up the episodes until

0:02:28.520 --> 0:02:33.120
<v Speaker 1>I'm having a really really bad day and then I

0:02:33.280 --> 0:02:35.560
<v Speaker 1>just like, okay, mom is going up to the room

0:02:35.600 --> 0:02:38.280
<v Speaker 1>and they're like, oh, here we go, She's gonna be

0:02:38.360 --> 0:02:43.200
<v Speaker 1>cryings and the floodgates open. But oh my gosh, I

0:02:43.440 --> 0:02:46.639
<v Speaker 1>love you and DeVaan. I'm surprised if one we haven't met,

0:02:46.680 --> 0:02:50.240
<v Speaker 1>because you were the executive producer in the movie that

0:02:50.320 --> 0:02:51.359
<v Speaker 1>I start in.

0:02:51.639 --> 0:02:53.520
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, the Star, The Star.

0:02:54.360 --> 0:02:57.200
<v Speaker 1>Why did we not win like an Academy for that?

0:02:57.560 --> 0:03:00.000
<v Speaker 2>I don't know. Well, on the next one, we will

0:03:00.480 --> 0:03:01.600
<v Speaker 2>my four lines.

0:03:01.760 --> 0:03:03.400
<v Speaker 1>I delivered them with passion.

0:03:05.160 --> 0:03:08.160
<v Speaker 2>Listen. We were grateful to get you, you know. I

0:03:08.200 --> 0:03:11.000
<v Speaker 2>know it was unfortunately that our pas you know, didn't cross,

0:03:11.120 --> 0:03:14.680
<v Speaker 2>but I was incredibly grateful that you would spend some

0:03:14.800 --> 0:03:17.639
<v Speaker 2>time and record those lines for us, because you did

0:03:17.639 --> 0:03:19.840
<v Speaker 2>a great job and we needed to and that voice,

0:03:19.919 --> 0:03:20.600
<v Speaker 2>yes voice.

0:03:20.800 --> 0:03:24.840
<v Speaker 1>Well, I have to share before we talk about Breakthrough,

0:03:24.960 --> 0:03:26.440
<v Speaker 1>which I don't know if I'm going to be able

0:03:26.440 --> 0:03:29.000
<v Speaker 1>to talk about because it's really hard to talk about.

0:03:29.480 --> 0:03:31.480
<v Speaker 1>But before we talk about that, I have to tell

0:03:31.520 --> 0:03:36.400
<v Speaker 1>you this strange coincidence. I don't know who wrote my lines,

0:03:36.480 --> 0:03:38.640
<v Speaker 1>if you wrote those, or who wrote my lines for

0:03:38.720 --> 0:03:41.440
<v Speaker 1>the Star, And like I said, I only had a

0:03:41.480 --> 0:03:46.560
<v Speaker 1>few of them. But the last line that I had

0:03:46.720 --> 0:03:52.240
<v Speaker 1>in that cute little movie was come on Zachariah parties

0:03:52.280 --> 0:03:57.440
<v Speaker 1>over it's time to go home? Because I played Elizabeth,

0:03:57.480 --> 0:04:00.480
<v Speaker 1>wife of Zachariah, who God had shut his mouth because

0:04:00.520 --> 0:04:03.440
<v Speaker 1>he was saying foolish things. I went in the studio

0:04:03.560 --> 0:04:07.840
<v Speaker 1>recorded the lines. I completely forgot about it. And from

0:04:07.880 --> 0:04:10.520
<v Speaker 1>the time that I recorded the lines and the time

0:04:10.560 --> 0:04:15.680
<v Speaker 1>that the movie debuted in during the holidays, God called

0:04:15.720 --> 0:04:17.640
<v Speaker 1>my son Zachariah.

0:04:16.960 --> 0:04:20.640
<v Speaker 2>Home, Oh my goodness.

0:04:20.279 --> 0:04:23.320
<v Speaker 1>And I had completely forgotten that line. So the movie

0:04:23.360 --> 0:04:25.920
<v Speaker 1>comes out, I pack all my kids together, we go

0:04:26.040 --> 0:04:28.320
<v Speaker 1>down to see it together, and I'm like, oh, this

0:04:28.360 --> 0:04:30.280
<v Speaker 1>is going to be the most amazing thing, you know.

0:04:30.560 --> 0:04:33.479
<v Speaker 1>And it was literally weeks after zach had gone home

0:04:33.520 --> 0:04:37.440
<v Speaker 1>and changed his address to have and then that line

0:04:37.520 --> 0:04:39.840
<v Speaker 1>comes on and the whole theater, because everybody in the

0:04:39.839 --> 0:04:45.240
<v Speaker 1>theater was with me, They're all like, wow, parties over

0:04:45.680 --> 0:04:46.440
<v Speaker 1>time to go home?

0:04:46.640 --> 0:04:51.799
<v Speaker 2>Oh whoa, Yeah, believable, absolutely unbelievable.

0:04:51.960 --> 0:04:54.560
<v Speaker 1>But let me tell you, while he was here the

0:04:54.640 --> 0:04:58.760
<v Speaker 1>eighteen years God gave him, he partied with loving his

0:04:58.839 --> 0:05:04.120
<v Speaker 1>heart for everybody. I want to talk about breakthrough and

0:05:04.400 --> 0:05:07.440
<v Speaker 1>what brought you two together to rip all of our

0:05:07.480 --> 0:05:08.400
<v Speaker 1>hearts out again?

0:05:09.240 --> 0:05:12.520
<v Speaker 2>Oh wow? I mean, you know, listen, it was not us.

0:05:12.920 --> 0:05:14.720
<v Speaker 2>A couple of years ago, when I was promoting Miracles

0:05:14.720 --> 0:05:16.599
<v Speaker 2>from Heaven, which is a film I produced before I

0:05:16.640 --> 0:05:20.039
<v Speaker 2>produced The Star, I was on TVN and on that

0:05:20.160 --> 0:05:23.400
<v Speaker 2>program there was a Smith family, Joyce Smith and John

0:05:23.440 --> 0:05:26.840
<v Speaker 2>Smith and pastor Jason Noble, and they were telling their story.

0:05:27.200 --> 0:05:30.080
<v Speaker 2>And when I heard that Joyce prayed John back to

0:05:30.160 --> 0:05:33.440
<v Speaker 2>life after he died falling through a frozen lake, I said,

0:05:33.440 --> 0:05:35.720
<v Speaker 2>this is unbelievable. I mean, in the medical record it

0:05:35.760 --> 0:05:38.560
<v Speaker 2>says patient dead and mother prayed patient came back to life.

0:05:38.680 --> 0:05:41.880
<v Speaker 2>And once I heard that, I knew that I had

0:05:41.880 --> 0:05:44.120
<v Speaker 2>to bring this to the big screen. And that was

0:05:44.160 --> 0:05:46.440
<v Speaker 2>just about three years ago. And you know, there is

0:05:46.560 --> 0:05:49.640
<v Speaker 2>no movie without a star, and there was no other

0:05:49.720 --> 0:05:51.640
<v Speaker 2>star that could do the role of Joyce but for

0:05:51.720 --> 0:05:54.360
<v Speaker 2>Chrissy Metz. And when she said yes, that was the

0:05:54.400 --> 0:05:57.840
<v Speaker 2>process that really allowed us to make the film. And

0:05:58.279 --> 0:06:02.320
<v Speaker 2>we're just hoping that audiences around the world are inspired.

0:06:01.839 --> 0:06:06.719

<v Speaker 1>workshops are absolutely free. Now let's get back to the

0:07:02.440 --> 0:07:06.160
<v Speaker 1>conversation we were just having. So, Chrissy, what was your

0:07:06.200 --> 0:07:09.479
<v Speaker 1>gut reaction when you first heard about Joyce or read

0:07:09.520 --> 0:07:12.920
<v Speaker 1>the script? What happened in your in your heart?

0:07:13.200 --> 0:07:15.840
<v Speaker 3>You know, I thought, oh am I capable of doing this?

0:07:16.880 --> 0:07:19.240
<v Speaker 3>I mean, that's always sort of the question. I don't

0:07:19.240 --> 0:07:21.040
<v Speaker 3>want to do something if I you know. Of course,

0:07:21.080 --> 0:07:22.320
<v Speaker 3>my ego is like if you don't do it well,

0:07:22.360 --> 0:07:25.360
<v Speaker 3>then don't do it at all. But also there's a

0:07:25.360 --> 0:07:29.440
<v Speaker 3>lot of growth to have been had, and so I

0:07:29.560 --> 0:07:32.720
<v Speaker 3>I just sort of how to sit with with myself

0:07:32.720 --> 0:07:35.440
<v Speaker 3>and my thoughts and pray about it and you know,

0:07:35.520 --> 0:07:38.320
<v Speaker 3>ask for guidance or advice from you know, my team.

0:07:38.400 --> 0:07:41.840
<v Speaker 3>And I was attached to another project at the time

0:07:41.840 --> 0:07:43.760
<v Speaker 3>that wasn't really going to allow me to be a

0:07:43.800 --> 0:07:48.560
<v Speaker 3>part of both, and then that fell through and I thought, okay, okay,

0:07:49.040 --> 0:07:51.960
<v Speaker 3>everything I already knew was just confirmed because everything just

0:07:52.000 --> 0:07:56.480
<v Speaker 3>fell into place. So, you know, trusting your gut is

0:07:56.800 --> 0:07:58.800
<v Speaker 3>is a hard thing to do, especially in Hollywood, I think,

0:07:59.640 --> 0:08:01.520
<v Speaker 3>but yeah, it just it was the right thing.

0:08:01.520 --> 0:08:06.280
<v Speaker 1>It was meant to be obviously, so it got to

0:08:06.320 --> 0:08:09.840
<v Speaker 1>me on many levels, obviously as a mom, but also

0:08:10.360 --> 0:08:15.200
<v Speaker 1>as a mom who has adopted kids, because that's a

0:08:15.280 --> 0:08:17.400
<v Speaker 1>piece of the story. I don't know how many people

0:08:17.440 --> 0:08:21.280
<v Speaker 1>are going to talk about, but we need to talk

0:08:21.320 --> 0:08:27.600
<v Speaker 1>about that because you playing Joyce the mom, are praying

0:08:27.640 --> 0:08:31.880
<v Speaker 1>back your son John, who you adopted. And I think

0:08:31.920 --> 0:08:34.600
<v Speaker 1>a lot of times when well, I know, when people

0:08:34.640 --> 0:08:36.440
<v Speaker 1>talk to me about my children, they're like, well, which

0:08:36.440 --> 0:08:37.640
<v Speaker 1>ones are your real children?

0:08:38.559 --> 0:08:39.079
<v Speaker 3>All of them?

0:08:39.559 --> 0:08:41.560
<v Speaker 2>Right, they're all your yeah? Yeah.

0:08:41.559 --> 0:08:44.600
<v Speaker 1>And the character, the role you play, you make it

0:08:44.720 --> 0:08:48.600
<v Speaker 1>very very clear and all of us adoptive moms are

0:08:48.640 --> 0:08:49.440
<v Speaker 1>saying thank you.

0:08:50.800 --> 0:08:51.839
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

0:08:51.920 --> 0:08:55.920
<v Speaker 1>The level of love and intimacy and commitment and just

0:08:56.160 --> 0:09:00.840
<v Speaker 1>undying love you have for that child mountains.

0:09:01.600 --> 0:09:01.840
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

0:09:01.840 --> 0:09:03.160
<v Speaker 3>Well that's Joyce Smith for him.

0:09:03.320 --> 0:09:05.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, yeah, that is how she really is in

0:09:06.080 --> 0:09:10.600
<v Speaker 2>real life. I mean, just a powerhouse, doesn't take no

0:09:10.720 --> 0:09:13.840
<v Speaker 2>for an answer, but she does it with love and

0:09:13.880 --> 0:09:15.480
<v Speaker 2>the way that she loved John. I mean, that's really

0:09:15.480 --> 0:09:17.000
<v Speaker 2>one of the reasons why I wanted to do the

0:09:17.080 --> 0:09:19.440
<v Speaker 2>movie was when I found out that, you know, she

0:09:19.559 --> 0:09:22.160
<v Speaker 2>had adopted him, her and her husban Brian adopted him

0:09:22.160 --> 0:09:24.720
<v Speaker 2>when he was six months old from Guatemala, and you know,

0:09:24.920 --> 0:09:27.040
<v Speaker 2>just the idea that he struggled with, why wasn't he

0:09:27.120 --> 0:09:29.520
<v Speaker 2>wanted And you know, she would try to affirm that,

0:09:29.640 --> 0:09:31.800
<v Speaker 2>but it wasn't until he went through this incident and

0:09:31.880 --> 0:09:33.560
<v Speaker 2>came out on the other side of it and saw

0:09:33.559 --> 0:09:35.240
<v Speaker 2>that it was his mother's prayers and the prayers of

0:09:35.240 --> 0:09:37.760
<v Speaker 2>the community and the love of the community and his

0:09:37.840 --> 0:09:40.240
<v Speaker 2>mother that really helped save his life. That he began

0:09:40.320 --> 0:09:42.280
<v Speaker 2>to understand that he had a purpose in a place.

0:09:42.320 --> 0:09:45.120
<v Speaker 2>And I think that's just so powerful and we really

0:09:45.200 --> 0:09:47.760
<v Speaker 2>wanted to portray it in the way that they experienced it,

0:09:47.880 --> 0:09:50.800
<v Speaker 2>and we're just grateful that Joyce and John really feel

0:09:50.840 --> 0:09:51.440
<v Speaker 2>like we got it right.

0:09:52.360 --> 0:09:56.400
<v Speaker 1>So how much backlash Devone did you get when you said, well,

0:09:56.400 --> 0:09:58.120
<v Speaker 1>you've been doing this for a long time. You've been

0:09:58.160 --> 0:10:03.079
<v Speaker 1>getting backlash because you have been involved with movies, powerful

0:10:03.120 --> 0:10:08.600
<v Speaker 1>movies about miraculous faith since your career began. But when

0:10:08.640 --> 0:10:11.760
<v Speaker 1>you said, Okay, Christy, let's do this, did you guys

0:10:12.000 --> 0:10:15.480
<v Speaker 1>get you know, backlash from people or are people being

0:10:15.480 --> 0:10:16.280
<v Speaker 1>really supportive?

0:10:16.640 --> 0:10:19.280
<v Speaker 2>You know? I mean as far as I don't really

0:10:19.679 --> 0:10:23.040
<v Speaker 2>read comments and whatnot, but from what I can tell

0:10:23.040 --> 0:10:25.880
<v Speaker 2>you having screened the film and been across the country

0:10:25.960 --> 0:10:28.920
<v Speaker 2>in multiple screenings with all different types of audiences, there

0:10:28.920 --> 0:10:32.200
<v Speaker 2>have been any backlash. I mean, people love Chrissy Metz,

0:10:32.400 --> 0:10:35.600
<v Speaker 2>They love her portrayal of Joyce. It is so emotional.

0:10:35.880 --> 0:10:38.880
<v Speaker 2>No matter what your faith journey is, you can find

0:10:39.040 --> 0:10:42.240
<v Speaker 2>something relatable in Breakthrough. I think we all, you know,

0:10:42.280 --> 0:10:44.440
<v Speaker 2>are searching for our place. We all want love, and

0:10:44.480 --> 0:10:47.959
<v Speaker 2>so there really hasn't been that kind of backlash. And

0:10:48.240 --> 0:10:50.640
<v Speaker 2>when people see Breakthrough, I mean they I think it's

0:10:50.679 --> 0:10:53.720
<v Speaker 2>all worth it. So whatever conflict there may be, or

0:10:53.760 --> 0:10:57.120
<v Speaker 2>whatever backlash may come, it's all worth it because they

0:10:57.120 --> 0:10:59.640
<v Speaker 2>are lives that will be changed for the better because

0:10:59.679 --> 0:11:00.559
<v Speaker 2>of a film. I don't like it.

0:11:01.160 --> 0:11:03.560
<v Speaker 1>So, Chrissy, I got to ask you after watching you

0:11:03.640 --> 0:11:07.600
<v Speaker 1>for hundreds of hours on three seasons of This Is Us,

0:11:08.280 --> 0:11:14.560
<v Speaker 1>where your character sometimes is a little self centered. Yeah,

0:11:14.720 --> 0:11:17.440
<v Speaker 1>I was so happy to find out, because I after

0:11:17.520 --> 0:11:20.360
<v Speaker 1>I watched the first season, I researched you, like at

0:11:20.440 --> 0:11:24.000
<v Speaker 1>nauseam to find out that that you are not that character,

0:11:24.080 --> 0:11:26.880
<v Speaker 1>but you play her very well. But the character you

0:11:27.520 --> 0:11:32.600
<v Speaker 1>play in the movie Breakthrough Joyce is so other focused

0:11:33.160 --> 0:11:36.920
<v Speaker 1>and yet both characters you play with such tenacity.

0:11:37.360 --> 0:11:38.120
<v Speaker 3>Well, thank you.

0:11:38.640 --> 0:11:42.360
<v Speaker 1>So I'm guessing that tenacity is the real Chrissy Metz.

0:11:42.840 --> 0:11:46.480
<v Speaker 3>Yes, I mean I didn't pursue acting for twelve years

0:11:46.480 --> 0:11:49.600
<v Speaker 3>of eating ramen noodles without that tenacity, you.

0:11:49.559 --> 0:11:51.839
<v Speaker 1>Know, And I know one hundred and one way to

0:11:51.880 --> 0:11:54.880
<v Speaker 1>cook ramen noodles, by the way, you know, let me

0:11:54.920 --> 0:11:58.840
<v Speaker 1>tell you, after you've been fired twelve times in radio,

0:11:59.000 --> 0:12:02.199
<v Speaker 1>you you and your ramen noodle recipes.

0:12:02.320 --> 0:12:06.080
<v Speaker 3>Right, and then it's very delicious. Yeah, absolutely, But yeah,

0:12:06.120 --> 0:12:10.760
<v Speaker 3>you have to be tenacious in that pursuit. And I

0:12:10.840 --> 0:12:14.640
<v Speaker 3>always was really cognizant of why was I doing it?

0:12:14.640 --> 0:12:17.560
<v Speaker 3>Because it wasn't about fame and fortune. That's sort of just.

0:12:17.440 --> 0:12:19.800
<v Speaker 1>Like a nice byproduct.

0:12:19.920 --> 0:12:22.839
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, but like what is it that I'm supposed to

0:12:22.880 --> 0:12:26.160
<v Speaker 3>be doing? And how do I How am I an instrument?

0:12:26.200 --> 0:12:27.319
<v Speaker 3>And how am I a conduit?

0:12:27.440 --> 0:12:31.360
<v Speaker 1>And so so answer that question with this movie, how

0:12:31.400 --> 0:12:33.480
<v Speaker 1>are you a conduit? What do you feel God called

0:12:33.520 --> 0:12:33.880
<v Speaker 1>you to do?

0:12:35.080 --> 0:12:40.400
<v Speaker 3>I think to portray Joyce and and this Smith family,

0:12:40.559 --> 0:12:44.200
<v Speaker 3>there's their story in how you know even in the

0:12:44.240 --> 0:12:47.680
<v Speaker 3>most uncertain times, that you you can ask for what

0:12:47.720 --> 0:12:50.080
<v Speaker 3>it is that you want and that you need. And

0:12:50.120 --> 0:12:52.599
<v Speaker 3>I hope that is conveyed through through the message and

0:12:52.920 --> 0:12:55.640
<v Speaker 3>through the story because that's exactly what she did and

0:12:55.679 --> 0:12:56.960
<v Speaker 3>she had no qualms about it.

0:12:57.440 --> 0:13:00.199
<v Speaker 1>And do you think you'll carry that into your life? Oh?

0:13:00.240 --> 0:13:03.880
<v Speaker 3>I definitely have. I definitely have more show than I

0:13:03.920 --> 0:13:04.680
<v Speaker 3>ever have before.

0:13:06.200 --> 0:13:08.760
<v Speaker 1>Devon. What do you hope folks will be talking about

0:13:08.800 --> 0:13:11.720
<v Speaker 1>once they go see I'm going to tell everybody because

0:13:11.800 --> 0:13:15.480
<v Speaker 1>take your family, take your friends, everybody to go see Breakthrough.

0:13:15.480 --> 0:13:18.439
<v Speaker 1>It's so perfect, especially during you know the season of

0:13:19.400 --> 0:13:23.880
<v Speaker 1>renewal and new life and new birth and springtime and

0:13:25.000 --> 0:13:28.520
<v Speaker 1>Easter Sunday, what are you hoping, Devon? People will be

0:13:28.640 --> 0:13:33.200
<v Speaker 1>saying as they drive home and talk about breakthrough right

0:13:33.240 --> 0:13:35.000
<v Speaker 1>before they turn my radio show back on.

0:13:36.480 --> 0:13:39.080
<v Speaker 2>Well, you know, Delta, I really hope that people, you know,

0:13:39.200 --> 0:13:41.720
<v Speaker 2>go and see this film and they have the experience

0:13:41.760 --> 0:13:45.240
<v Speaker 2>that audience is around the country are already having, which is,

0:13:45.800 --> 0:13:48.640
<v Speaker 2>you know, we hold so much in you know, day

0:13:48.679 --> 0:13:50.920
<v Speaker 2>to day, and what's happening is people see this film

0:13:51.240 --> 0:13:54.440
<v Speaker 2>they're able to release and let go. It's very cathartic.

0:13:54.640 --> 0:13:57.479
<v Speaker 2>Audiences are walking out of the theater with their own breakthroughs,

0:13:58.120 --> 0:14:01.760
<v Speaker 2>you know, breakthroughs of emotional healing, breakthroughs of love, breakthroughs

0:14:01.760 --> 0:14:04.120
<v Speaker 2>of finding or feeling like they have a place in life.

0:14:04.200 --> 0:14:05.880
<v Speaker 2>And so my hope and prayers everyone who sees the

0:14:05.880 --> 0:14:08.560
<v Speaker 2>film will experience their own breakthrough in an area of

0:14:08.600 --> 0:14:12.080
<v Speaker 2>their life, so that it goes beyond just being entertainment

0:14:12.120 --> 0:14:14.439
<v Speaker 2>for two hours, but it becomes a catalys for change

0:14:14.440 --> 0:14:15.160
<v Speaker 2>in their life.
