South African Filmmaker Discusses Inspirational Movie Titled The Roar
In a bid to inspire viewers and portray aspects of the Gospel, film maker Frans Cronje has embarked on a new project with the production of 'The Roar.' This movie, which is part of the newly launched Purpose Campaign, tells the story of a character named Louise, who is on a journey to discover her purpose.
Cronje, who is known for his passion for inspiring people to live purpose-driven lives, found his own purpose by asking God to show him why He created him, analyzing his talents, and combining them with his passions. This approach has led him to build a 'super creative' and vibrant young team of creative people for future projects.
The movie features Almarie du Preez as the lead actress, Heinz Winckler as her fiancé, and several other actors, including Torry Martin, Shaullanda LaCombe, David Morrin, Eugene Khumbanyiwa, and Greg Kriek. Kevin Richardson, known as the 'lion whisperer,' assisted with some action scenes involving lions.
'The Roar' was filmed in both New York and the South African bushveld. Cronje started producing the movie with a theme or ministry plan, and then thought of a creative way to tell a story that illustrates the theme. The film also touches on the problem of rhino poaching.
The screenplay for the film was written by Michael Stewart. Cronje faced the challenge of not having a final screenplay when filming 'The Roar,' but his determination to inspire viewers remained unwavering.
Feedback from viewers about how the movie inspired them to live purpose-driven lives is desired. If you have seen 'The Roar' and would like to share your thoughts, feel free to visit the film's website at www.thepurposecampaign.com or follow Frans Cronje's work on Facebook at http://www.facebook.com/faithfilmhub/.
After the Purpose Campaign, Cronje plans to go into pre-production on a Biblical epic movie set in Samaria and Rome two thousand years ago. The Purpose Campaign is viewed as an awareness movement that could lead to community transformation in South Africa.
In conclusion, 'The Roar' is a movie that aims to inspire people to live purpose-driven lives. Whether you're seeking inspiration, enjoy a good story, or are interested in learning more about the Gospel, this movie is definitely worth a watch.
