FROM THE PLATES OF GOLD TO BIG SCREENS OF SILVER WITNESSES SUMMER 2021 For nearly 200 years, skeptics and critics have attempted to explain away what David Whitmer, Oliver Cowdery and Martin Harris claimed - that they had seen angels and hefted golden metal plates containing ancient inscriptions. To their dying days, these witnesses defended their testimonies even when faced with threatening mobs, ridicule, and betrayal by friends and family. And now, their incredible untold true story comes to the big screen for the very first time. Director Mark Goodman and Producer Russ Richins have partnered with Purdie Distribution and The Interpreter Foundation to bring WITNESSES, the incredible story of early LDS and American history to the big screen. They will share why having the right team is everything when embarking on a theatrical release of such an ambitious and landmark film. “WITNESSES is the most significant and ambitious film dealing with the early history of the Church and the translation of the Book of Mormon to ever be released on the big screen,” stated Brandon Purdie, president and founder of Purdie Distribution. Purdie Distribution is managing the nationwide theatrical release of the ground-breaking film. www.witnessesfilm.com
