As much as I adore Hallmark and its content, there is nothing like watching a high-quality faith-based film. Recently, I had the opportunity to connect with Christian independent filmmaker, Alexandra Boylan. Her faith-based films have truly raised the bar in this genre, and I am honored to share our recent interview with all my readers today!

RH: Thank you, Alexandra, for making the time to chat with me today. 

AB: My pleasure, Ruth. How did you hear about me and my films?

I actually read an interview you did with Movieguide. 

That’s awesome! I did do an interview with them recently about Catching Faith 2. Not this year, but last year, I won the Movieguide Award for Best Screenplay. I’ve been connected to Movieguide for a while now. They are such good supporters of us and our films.

I only discovered Movieguide through Hallmark because they had a part of their awards show this year broadcast on the Hallmark Channel. I love getting to read their articles and get their perspective on things in film and TV. And then sometimes they will alert me to other people in the industry who I didn’t know were Christians.

I totally agree! You know, we just worked with Denise Richards. She’s in our movie Switched. That’s a teenage girl faith-based film, and it was so awesome that Denise Richards wanted to be a part of our film.

I love it when someone you wouldn’t expect to do a faith-based film ends up doing one. You never know what kind of impact it can have on their lives. 

Yeah, and we get a lot of their audience that I don’t think would normally show up for this kind of movie. Because Denise Richards is in it, they will show up and watch. And that gives us a bigger audience to give the message of Jesus and have good values go out into the world.

That’s amazing! So how did you get started in film and TV?

Well, to make a long story short, my dad’s a minister, and I grew up in Massachusetts. I always loved acting. When I was a kid, I did the church plays. I did every school play. And then at a very young age, I was like, “I’m going to California!” At nineteen years old, I moved to Los Angeles by myself, and I started pounding the pavement. Literally, for ten years, I had a really rough time out here because I couldn’t work and I felt like I failed. So after ten years, I was like, “Okay, this isn’t working anymore, and I’m gonna release my dreams to God.”

So I packed my bags, and I moved to Albuquerque, New Mexico because I heard the industry was booming over there. But I really think I moved there to let go of my dreams. I knew what I had been doing wasn’t working, and I needed to refocus my life and maybe pursue something else. Out there, I met all these incredible independent filmmakers that I still work with to this day. We started making short films, which was super fun. New Mexico is a low-income state, so a lot of people are making pretty good money in the film industry. That gives them free time to go and make something for fun on the side. Whereas with LA, things are so expensive that you’re basically just working to survive.

These wonderful filmmakers I met worked together with me to make a couple of shorts and a web series. Then we made our first feature, Home Sweet Home, which was a thriller. We made it for ten thousand dollars in the New Mexico desert at the director’s parents’ house. I also had a couple of my girlfriends from LA come and make this feature film with us. We shot this movie back in 2011. We used this film as a calling card to get investment for another movie, and, of course, I gave myself the lead. But then we ended up selling the film, and it did really, really well. It exceeded our expectations.

Following this, we had a meeting with our sales team about what movie we wanted to do next, and he suggested, “How about you do faith-based family? If you can do the quality of Home Sweet Home in the faith-based arena, you guys would be very successful.” I don’t even know if he knew that my dad was a minister or that I was a Christian. He was just my sales agent, and we just worked together on selling the movie. We didn’t really have a conversation about faith.

I really felt like God just dropped this in my lap and said, “You’re gonna make faith-based movies.” At first, I was like, “Oh my gosh, I don’t know if I want to do faith-based films.” You know, they have a little reputation for being cheesy. So I was like, “No, no, God, I don’t want to do that.” But I prayed about it. And you know what? This was around 2013, 2014. There was no female-driven faith-based stuff out there. I was looking at the landscape of faith-based films, and they were all starring men. Women were the supporting roles for the most part. And I was like, “You know what? I should do this different. I will make faith-based films for women. I’ll fill that void.”

That’s what led to us making Catching Faith.  We call it “the little tiny movie that could.” We totally believed that God called us to make it, so we stepped out in faith, and we made Catching Faith, which is a female-driven faith-based film. It went on to do so well that we were asked to do a sequel to it which came out just last month. And that so blows my mind, even to this day.

That is incredible! Now, what you mentioned about faith-based films and the quality not being so good…I would agree that is the way they used to be. Thankfully, the quality of faith-based films has improved so much. I was one of those people who didn’t mind watching if it was a good story, even if the acting wasn’t the best. Maybe they didn’t have the money to do everything in the best way possible. But I can forgive a lot of that if the story is good. It doesn’t have to be Hollywood quality. 

Catching Faith

You know, in the beginning, I think faith-based movies started out with churches making them, not filmmakers making them. When we approach a film, we are filmmakers first. Our film starts from a place where we tell a story with great cinematography. Then within that story, we incorporate faith. I write faith-based films, so I know how hard it is. Faith is a visceral experience, and it’s very hard to portray in a movie. Movies are a visual medium, and that’s why it seems cheesy sometimes. They’re trying to explain this relationship you have with a Heavenly Father that is not in the room physically. You cannot talk to Him, and the audience can’t see Him. If I just show that relationship, it’s not like a boy and girl meeting and falling in love. But we work really hard in our films to weave the faith into it in such a way that feels organic and authentic. We don’t want it to come out of left field like, “Oh my gosh, why are they just talking about God right now out of nowhere?” Our goal has always been to tell a really good story and then incorporate faith into the story. We don’t really feature sermons in our movies. We really hope people walk away with enough to ask questions and think about what they just saw. Hopefully, this will guide them back to God and the Bible, but we don’t really focus on that in the movie. We want people to walk away asking questions. We don’t really drop in the cross or have people putting their hands in the air. We want people to walk away and explore the answers to the questions we asked in our movies.

I personally think those are the best kind of faith-based films. A movie that makes you think and ask questions and start a conversation is the best way to do it in my opinion. Now, for some reason, I had never heard of Catching Faith. I don’t know how I missed that one. I have seen it now, but I didn’t know about it before.

Thank you, Ruth.

You had an amazing cast associated with this film.

Oh yeah, we sure did. It stars Bill Engvall, Lorena Segura York…Chelsea Crockett, who is a big Christian YouTube star. Now, we also did a Christmas movie called Wish For Christmas. That’s another film I co-wrote and produced. It stars Joey Lawrence, Leigh-Allyn Baker–from Good Luck Charlie. Bill Engvall and also Chelsea Crockett again. And that film is adorable! How old is your daughter?

She’s sixteen.

Chelsea Crockett and Alexandra Boylan Los Angeles Premiere of Wish For Christmas

She might enjoy Wish For Christmas, but she’ll definitely enjoy Switched. In our movies, we try to talk with the youth and appeal to them. While we agree that women are being overlooked, people aren’t really talking to teens either, at least in a fun way that gets them to think. Wish For Christmas is about a spoiled, self-centered senior girl in high school who when the big winter ball gets moved to Christmas Eve night, she can’t attend ’cause she has to go to church with her family. She makes a wish that her parents wouldn’t believe in God anymore, and when she wakes up the next day, she finds out what it’s like when the light of Jesus is removed from her parents’ hearts. It’s a really fun Christmas movie. Everything about this girl is self-centered, and her parents become a sort of reflection of her. That’s when she sees herself as she really is and she doesn’t like it much. That sends her on a journey to change her own heart.

Wish For Christmas

That sounds really interesting! I thank you for the recommendation as I have just added it to my DVD library. 

I’m so glad, Ruth! I know that viewers are always looking for faith-based films that are of good quality. We always try to elevate our films with phenomenal music. We have incredible editors, sound designers, color correctors…we always are trying to make our movies the best quality we can. We are still independent. We don’t have the money of a studio like Sony. But for being independent, we have a really talented team. We want to make it so that the viewers enjoy it.

You know, there have been times when I have watched faith-based films because my friends were in them, and sometimes they are so hard to watch. The people making it did not take time to make it a quality movie. And I can remember watching one where there was just random music, and I felt like the music was taking me out of the movie. We want to use the music to bring you in, not take you out. God has really blessed us with the right people. We’ve been able to collect a really great film tribe. We are really good to the people we work with. We try to be the best leaders, and so far, everyone has come back and wants to work with us again. So these incredible people actually work for us on a smaller budget level because they enjoy working with us. We’re always like, “We’re gonna get there someday…to the big one!” I know we haven’t gotten to the level of the Kendrick Brothers yet.

Well, they didn’t get there overnight either. 

Movieguide Awards

That’s true. They took a long time. So, let me tell you a funny story about Wish For Christmas. It won the Movieguide Awards for Best Screenplay, and we had already shot the movie when we found out we won the award. And then they told us that you can’t already have made the movie and win this award. We had submitted the screenplay eight months earlier, and we had no idea we were going to make the movie. So we were disqualified at that time. But then we ended up winning the next time for Switched. So we figured we were doing something right because we kept winning the Movieguide Award.

Right now, Switched is in post-production, and it will be out next year. We had John Schneider, Vanessa Merrell–from the Merrell Twins on YouTube. The movie is about two girls in high school. One girl is a bully, and the other girl is the one she bullies. The girl who is bullied prays that the other girl would know what it’s like to walk a day in her shoes. And when they wake up the next day, they’ve switched places, which leads them to finding love and compassion for each other. Kind of like Freaky Friday.

It came out so beautiful, and it’s hip and it’s cool. We had an awesome wardrobe, and the girls are so great. When I was growing up as a minister’s kid, I didn’t feel like I had an alternative to the hip movies. The alternatives were these movies about a girl and her horse, and her horse becomes her friend. That’s not really relatable to most girls. That’s not what’s going on in their lives. They’re being bullied at high school. They’re being targeted on social media. I really felt like the movie turned out phenomenal, and hopefully the message of “love your neighbor as yourself” will come across really well. It’s also a really fun movie. I think we took this movie outside of the box, but God is supernatural. Whenever we do these kinds of movies, we know God can do anything. Jesus told parables while on earth, so we try to tell parables in our movies too, because that’s how you’re going to get people to come and enjoy the stories.

I am so excited about this! I love the fact that your stories are female-driven. My daughter and I have had conversations recently about similar topics. For example, in musicals, the best parts always seem to be the guy’s parts. The female parts are rarely all that exciting. I mean, that’s something I love about Hallmark too, that their projects are female-driven and even female-led.

Yes, I think it’s important to not only have female-driven movies, but we also need female-created movies. My sister and I and my partner, John K.D. Graham, who is the director, when we’re all sitting around the table, we’re making sure that the female gaze is coming from us. I’ve even had some men read our scripts, and they try to tell me what the women would think. And I’m like, “Woh–woh–woh! I’m a woman! I know what women think!” And this is the problem with films that don’t have women attached to them behind the camera. We’re only getting things told from the male perspective. So it’s really exciting that our films have women or teenage girls as the stars and also feature women behind the camera. I make sure we have fifty-one percent or more women on our team. We have a female writer, female producer…we want to make sure that we are contributing to how women want to see things happen on screen.

My sister did the production design for Switched and she was setting up the room for one of the scenes. They kept changing the setup because of the camera angles, but she said, “No, the room has to be set up like this because the room was designed to be a certain way, and the women will know that.” The director, since he was a guy, didn’t know that. It’s really interesting how something that small about how a room should get set up can reflect the female perspective, and men just don’t see it that way.

Alexandra Boylan, Andrea Polnaszek

You know, I’ve been in this film and TV world for twenty years now, and even now, when I get on set…sometimes I’m the stand-in on these big movies, and sometimes the actress is the only woman in the room. I mean, there’s no other woman in the room! There’s no woman grip, no woman electrician…and I’m thinking, “Wait a minute! We’ve got to have some female perspective here.” They worked so hard to make a female-driven Marvel show, and season one, they didn’t have one female director. I kept thinking, “This show is about a girl, and there’s no woman directing it or even calling the shots!”

I think it’s amazing that you’re doing this, Alexandra. I mean, the fact that you are a Christian woman doing all this is even more amazing! We don’t always see strong women in the Christian world standing up and being leaders. We see “good” worldly women, but very few Christian women are doing this. And I’m so glad you are. I commend you. We need good female role models in the Christian film community. These “good” non-Christian women can be fine to emulate, but we need more women who are standing up like you are who are driven by Christ. 

Exactly! Catching Faith 2 had an amazing premiere back in August. It was so amazing to watch it on the big screen with everybody. We have gotten so many compliments on this movie because it is a very female-heavy film. The heart of the story is really about the lead character, Alexa Taylor, who we pick up four years after the last movie where her kids have gone to college. Her kids are getting ready to go to college in Catching Faith. So now they’re about to graduate from college. She’s caring for her mother, who has dementia. Her daughter calls her and says that she’s coming home and getting married. So the heart of the story is she is trying to care for her mother while still being a good mother to her daughter and helping her plan the wedding. In true woman form, she’s trying to do everything herself. In the film, we portray a women’s Bible study with her friends who are her support system.

When Andrea {Alexandra’s sister} and I wrote this script and we sent it out to all our test readers, their response was hilarious.  They are all women. They would write back and say, “I love the script, but I feel like it’s all about the women, and the husband is only there to move her storyline along.” That’s so funny because about ninety percent of Hollywood movies are about men, and the women are there just to move the guy’s storyline along. And we were doing just the opposite! This story is about the woman, not the man. And of course, only women would call that out and say you have to make it fair for both of them. But we did write in a beautiful scene where he confronts her and says, “I feel like I’m just here to support you, and you’re not supporting me back.” And it became this gorgeous, awesome husband-wife scene. And that never would have happened had not our test readers said that we needed to address this issue in the script.

We’ve also learned with making these films that some people are not used to seeing it that way. Like in Catching Faith, they are not used to seeing the woman at the center of the story. But it’s so refreshing, and I know that’s why it went on to do so well. It was a tiny budget, and God just blessed it. And we’ve gotten messages from all over the world. Women regularly let us know how it impacted their lives and also about the conversations they have had with their kids who saw the movie. It’s great to have a project that is speaking to women.

We were even invited to Cuba to do a movie tour of Catching Faith. You’ll probably notice that my sister is a licensed therapist. And we are both minister’s kids, and her husband is a pastor. My sister writes all of the companion materials that go with all of our movies. She wrote The Elijah Project, which is a whole study for women. They are women’s Bible studies like what is done in the movies, and they have done really well. So many women needed the message that study book was giving them. Then the books spread like wildfire in Cuba, and they invited us to come and show the movie. I remember standing there in Cuba talking about the movie, and I was like, “This is so God! I should not be in Cuba right now talking about this movie!” But God had people’s lives that He needed to change, and it was so exciting to be a part of that.

I want to say that God’s our biggest marketer. We don’t worry anymore about our movies. We didn’t know how we would get a big distribution company, but God did. We didn’t have any big marketing going on, but we knew God had it. If He wants someone to see it, He’s going to make a way. And He always does.

I always get so energized when talking with Christians in the film and TV community. I love getting to talk with positive people, but there’s nothing like chatting with a fellow child of God. I don’t know why I didn’t hear about you and your movies till now, but God had it worked out.

You know, there is so much need in our country and our culture for clean films. Clean, good, inspirational, family-friendly films! I am sick of all the raunchy stuff out there, and I’m very sick of all the teen stuff out there that is not appropriate. There are some people in the film industry who loved my movie Switched, and they wanted to take it and give it a bigger budget. The requirement was that they wanted me to take God out of it, and they wanted to rewrite it. And I realized that they wanted to rewrite my teen girl movie and make it raunchy and have the girls doing things I didn’t want them to do. I’m always protective of my movies because they’re my babies. My team and I take the film from concept to completion, and then we sell it. We keep our vision in it from the beginning to the end so that it stays the way it should have always been. I feel like Switched is gonna be such a breath of fresh air for parents so they will have something to show their kids that sends a good message. And there’s nothing bad in it. I mean, we don’t even have people kiss or hold hands. Of course, we don’t have any swearing. It’s a very positive thing for girls to look up to, and no girl is chasing a boy. It’s all about girls and their relationships with each other. One wants to go to college, and one’s going after a career. So to the studios who wanted to change some things, I was like, “No, thanks.” I was committed to protecting my film and its message. I want to be a light to young women. I want them to have something I didn’t have when I was young–a hip, cool, faith-based film.

Switched

I love the fact that Switched has no kissing! My daughter is sixteen, and she has no interest in boys or dating. She actually doesn’t like how films always seem to have that in them. 

I’m glad to hear that, Ruth. I think it’s very important for us as filmmakers and entertainers to create a culture and not reflect the broken culture. We want to create and show people what can be. One of the most important parts about my movies, especially Catching Faith 2 and Switched,  is showing relationships between girls and women and how it can be good. Why can’t we show a relationship on-screen between two girls rather than their relationship with a boy? How do girls communicate? How do girls become friends? How do girls fight against all the social media?

I think our biggest compliment after Catching Faith 2 was having people tell me after watching it, “I want a group of friends like that.” The movie promotes positive, healthy, female relationships. Unfortunately, there is a lot of media that pits women against each other, and all that does is create a negative culture. We are taught that we are not supposed to be for each other, but against each other, clamoring for the top. That’s one of the reasons I love to crew up women because I don’t think women get a lot of opportunities to do that. Behind-the-scenes in the entertainment industry, a lot of women are fighting with each other to get that one seat at the top. But I know we need to create plenty of space so that women can have jobs.  It’s not “me versus you,” but it’s “you and me together.”

Catching Faith

I know all about how women can be very prone to fighting, even in the journalistic world. I have had so many women in my life who feel threatened by me, so they go decide to say nasty things about me or just cut me off. My whole idea is to try to build each other up. I always think there’s plenty of room for everyone, and I don’t want to cut anyone off or be jealous of someone else’s successes. 

I agree with you. When one woman succeeds, we all succeed. I live in Los Angeles, and I am surrounded by all sorts of female-driven groups. Women in film is everything in that city. I’m a heavy member of all these groups, and we are always trying to create space for everyone. Every time a woman succeeds, you are just opening the door for another woman to succeed. It’s sad that we don’t look at it that way. All too often, it’s about competition instead of camaraderie. My philosophy is, “Oh, you’re a woman, and you just wrote and produced a movie? Well, you just opened up a space for me as a writer/producer!” I pray that way more people come out and do lots more female-driven films.

I get asked all the time, “Aren’t you jealous of the Kendrick Brothers?” I mean, come on now! How could I be jealous of the Kendrick Brothers? They have a whole different story, but they are bringing people to the Kingdom of Heaven. We are together in a journey trying to get people to know Jesus. It’s not me versus them. It’s like Overcomer succeeds, and we all succeed. It’s a mentality that we have to continue to nurture in our own brains.

Alexandra Boylan, Lauren Chavez-Myers

Back to Catching Faith 1 & 2, I actually play Jezi Adams. I play the lead’s “friend.” We definitely portray the kind of negative women we’re talking about. We portrayed Jezi this way because we want to show how that is not the way we are supposed to treat each other as friends. Not to spoil the movie, but a lot of people after Catching Faith were disappointed that there was no reconciliation between Jezi and Alexa. They have a falling out in the movie. We made them not reconcile on purpose because sometimes we don’t always wrap our stories up with nice, neat, pretty little bows. We wanted to make that part a little more realistic. Sometimes, if you have a friend who’s not such a good friend, you have to let them go. We’ve got to have boundaries. So we made sure that Alexa had friends in her Bible study.

Now, in Catching Faith 2, we were able to bring that relationship back, and you will have to watch and see if they reconcile or not. We deal with forgiveness and how to deal with relationships like this. I don’t want to spoil it, so you need to watch to see what happens. We were excited to be able to revisit that relationship. Having the chance to do a sequel to that movie and revisit the storyline meant so much; I can’t even put it into words. That first movie was made on such a little budget that I couldn’t afford my apartment in Los Angeles. I actually put everything I own in storage and moved in with my sister to write the script. I lived on the road out of my car for one full year to make Catching Faith. No address. I was staying on people’s couches. In fact, while I was doing it, I kept praying, “God, I really hope this is what you want because I just gave up my apartment. I gave up my home, and I want to go home!” And God has blessed us tenfold. And now I’m like, “Who cares about that apartment? Look what God has done with our movie!”

Movieguide Awards

Also, if someone tells us to take God out of things, my answer is, “There is no way we’re taking God out of the equation! He is the only reason we’re here, and He is blessing us through these movies.” Our films are not succeeding because we have millions of marketing dollars. God’s hand is completely in this, and I think I’m gonna stick with Him on this.

I applaud your decision and completely support it. I have been told to change the name of my site, but I refuse to do so. I want every person going to my site to know that I am a Christian, and I refuse to change that. It may cost me interviews and more revenue, but this is God’s site, not mine. But I interview everyone–believers, non-Christians, atheists…I welcome them all.

I get that. It’s like when nonbelievers do Christian movies. When people ask if everybody has to be a Christian on my set, my response is, “Absolutely not! What if they come to know Jesus because they were around us?” As long as no one is on set making fun of Christians, we are fine with it. We have a lot of unbelievers who work on our sets. And we’ve had some who have come to know Jesus because they ask one of us a question. We have to be in the world, not of the world. We have to be a light to people, and the best way to do it is to be an example. I don’t go around preaching, but everybody knows I do faith-based films. There’s 3500 women in the industry, and they all know what I do. I don’t really have to go and preach.

I have been blown away by what God has done with our little company, Mustard Seed Entertainment, because we really started with nothing and God. We do pray and try to do what God wants us to do. We had almost given up on Switched because we had taken it to every studio, and it wasn’t getting the green light. But after we got the Movieguide Award for it, I felt like God was saying to not give up. Then right after that, we met our investor, Nicole Weider. She believed in our story. And I’m like, “God is so good!” He was like, “I got you! Just hang on a little bit longer.”

I can hardly wait for everyone to see Swtiched. I think it’s going to be the best teen girl movie that Christian teen girls can feel good about inviting their friends to see it. It’s hip and cool and faith-based. We kept the message light and subtle, but it’s still there. It makes you think, and I think those are the best kinds of films.

I know that people do get saved when they go see faith-based films, but I don’t think it usually happens in the theater. I think most of the time the person opens up to the person who brought them, and the movie starts a conversation that eventually leads to that person getting saved.

Exactly! And I think Switched will be the perfect film for Christian teens to bring their non-Christian friends to see. It’s a good story that is relatable and fun. The message is clear and strong about what it looks like to love the Lord God with all your heart, mind, soul, and spirit. And love your neighbor as yourself.

Back to Catching Faith 2, one of the lead actresses brought one of her friends to the premiere who was not a Christian. Of course, her friend was going to come see her in a movie. But when she got there and watched it, she was like, “Oh my gosh, I love that movie! I didn’t feel for a second like how I thought I would feel going to see a faith-based film.” And I’m like, “Yeah, we’re doing something special!”

Alexandra, I cannot tell you how thrilled I am that you stopped by and shared all this with us! I’ll be sure to let everyone know where they can find Catching Faith 2 and your other movies.

Thank you, Ruth. I hope that everyone enjoys Catching Faith 2 which is out now! And thank you for your time and willingness to share. I can hardly wait to release Switched, so next year should be incredible!

I am so grateful to Alexandra for heeding God’s plan for her life in spite of any difficulties she has encountered along the way. While I’m certain she thrives on producing these faith-based films, her dedication to high-quality content and female-driven storylines have given her a unique voice while enabling her to reach an entire sector of society that may have felt they were somewhat overlooked. Her powerful witness to women of all ages through engaging storylines, relatable topics, and outstanding production quality have provided her with the impressive reach of which some independent filmmakers can only dream. Nevertheless, she has never lost her focus nor her sense of God’s calling, and she continues to be the benevolent, compassionate woman who is constantly driven by God’s calling on her life. I applaud her for her commitment and stand in this world of indecent, risqué entertainment, and I look forward to seeing more from her and her company in the near and distant future.

While we await next year’s highly-anticipated teenage girl film Switched, I hope that everyone will visit Alexandra’s links below and consider following her where applicable. I have also included the links to her faith-based movies that are already available across a wide variety of platforms, and I am hopeful that many of my readers will consider purchasing and/or streaming one of her films in order to support her continued endeavors. I am appreciative to have made such a sincere and amazing connection in Alexandra, and it thrills me to no end that God is proceeding to raise up godly, faithful women to lead the way in an extensive variety of industries. Because of my connection to the film and TV industry, it overwhelms me with enthusiasm and honor to be able to support and further the ministry of Alexandra–nontraditional though it may appear to some–and I pray that many of my readers will go out of their way to let the industry know that movies like Alexandra’s and other faith-based films are the content we desire above all else!

Rather, follow your most intense obsessions mercilessly.” — Franz Kafka Ruth is an inspirational entertainment journalist who instinctively sees the best in all and seeks to share universal beauty, love and positivity. She is an artist who leads with her heart and gives readers a glimpse of the best of this world through the masterful use of the written word. Ruth was born in Tacoma, Washington but now calls Yelm, Washington her home. She lives on five acres with her parents, a dog, two miniature goats, cats and a teenage daughter who is a dynamic visual artist herself. Ruth interviews fellow artists both inside and outside of the film/television industry. At the core of all she does is the strength of her faith.
