Watch American Family Association’s First Feature Length Film Tonight!

Details

American Family Studios’ first feature length film — “Summer Snow” — is scheduled to air three times on the UP — Uplifting Entertainment — channel – beginning this evening.

From a review in the recent AFA Journal: In the story, Dan Benson, a dentist, and his three children are grieving the recent death of Susan, their wife and mother. Older daughter Julie is a nurse engaged to be married soon. David is a high school senior, and Hallie is eight years old. With Dad and the older children, writers subtly weave other issues into the script, e.g. pornography and abortion. However, no content is offensive, and the story remains child-friendly.

Hallie, played by Rachael Eggleston, steals the show with her series of frequent attempts to solve the problems of schoolmates, neighbors and family. For example, Hallie sets out to pay for dental care for a friend at school, and money-making schemes include selling toothbrushes she takes from Dad’s office, and staging a giant garage sale without Dad’s permission. Unfortunately, Hallie’s exploits often fail in ways that add a lot of comic contrast to the film’s serious subjects.
