The story behind those amazing special effects
SYNOPSIS The leading mercenary for the British East India
Company, Will Reynolds, has been double-crossed and now is on
the run in the American colonies. Working to redeem his name and
win back the woman with whom he's never been fully truthful,
Will takes on a new mask in hopes of thwarting his former
employer. As his past life closes in on him, Will somehow must
gain the trust and help of his beloved Charlotte—as well as Ben
Franklin—while he races time to defuse a plot of historical
proportions. BEYOND THE MASK is a revolutionary new family film
that brings history to life in a faith-filled adventure
celebrating grace, liberty and the true freedom that can only be
found in Christ.
What a story! Homeschooled cousins—and filmmakers—go bold with a
Kickstarter campaign for a faith film that reaches new heights
of Computer Generated Images and stakes out the action-adventure
genre. Then, first distributed by Gathr’s on-demand platform,
BEYOND THE MASK opens at a record-setting 440-plus theaters
nationwide with record box office results guaranteed before the
premiere. That leads to a national theatrical release with
Freestyle Releasing, praise from critics and fans and, now, a
DVD release.
A Hero’s Words from ‘Beyond the Mask’s’ Villain—John Rhys-Davies
He was the villain in BEYOND THE MASK, the beloved dwarf Gimli
in THE LORD OF THE RINGS and is an articulate commenter on the
plight of Christians in the Middle East and what that portends
for Western civilization. Renowned actor John Rhys-Davies grew
up in post-World War II Europe and knows something of the many
faces of evil. He talked on Adam Corolla’s podcast about the
dangers of the West losing “our moral compass.”
