FILM FESTIVAL

The Gideon 2012 Film Festival is posted on our Film Festival page. We believe this is the best quality films that we have had in our five year history.

The film NOT TODAY is about child sex trafficking in India and how a young man comes back to his faith trying to help a young girl escape the life in the slums. The showing is on Wednesday, August 15, 2012 at 7:00 PM. A Q & A with the cast and crew will follow the screening. Check out the trailer.

 

The Gideon is proud to announce that OCTOBER BABY will screen following the banquet on Tuesday, August 14, 2012. After the film, there will be a Q & A with cast and crew. OCTOBER BABY is playing in theaters now. Director/Writer Jon Erwin will also be teaching workshops during the week long event.

Watch the trailer.
