Movie Description

Two lost souls -- Nina (Tammy Blanchard), a pregnant, unmarried waitress, and Jose (Eduardo Verástegui), an introspective cook with a tragic past -- find solace in each other as their lives become unpredictably linked throughout the course of one incredible day. First-time director Alejandro Gomez Monteverde also co-wrote the screenplay for this inspirational story about love, hope and forgiveness.

Reel Faith Description

Jay Pathak continues his Reel Faith series with Bella - a story about unplanned and unwanted pregnancy. In his sermon, Jay makes the case that the closest parallel we have today with the widows of the Bible are single mothers. We, as the Church, need to offer real options to those that find themselves scared and confused in an unplanned pregnancy. Jay calls us to stand up on behalf of single mothers and fulfill our call to take care of the "widows and orphans." Presented by Mile High Vineyard, located in a suburb northwest of Denver, Colorado.
