The Witness
Our co-sponsors for this film include
the Dallas Peace Center and the
Animal Connection of Texas.
How does a construction contractor from a tough Brooklyn neighborhood become an impassioned animal advocate?
In this award-winning documentary, Eddie Lama explains how he feared and avoided animals for most of his life, until the love of a kitten opened his heart, inspiring him to rescue abandoned animals and bring his message of compassion to the streets of New York. With humor and sincerity, Eddie tells the story of his remarkable change in consciousness.
I hope you get a good attendance for The Witness. We have shown in our congregation another documentary, Peaceable Kingdom, made by the same organization, Tribe of Heart. Both films are powerful, engaging, and effective at opening hearts and minds. Good luck!
