Wonder of wonders, miracle of miracles “The Stairs” has been selected by the Near Nazareth Film Festival, of Afula, Israel, to be included in its festival. Our short indie film will play to an Israeli audience.

The goal of the festival is to “strengthen mutual understanding and friendship between the peoples of the world.”

Filmmakers from 65 countries are participating in the festival.

The event venue is the Poznack Community Center in Givat Ha-More.

This may not be “The most miraculous one of all” but it feels damn good.
