This film tells a story of hope, of perseverance, and the belief that our greatest days are still ahead.\u201d<br \/>said Freiburger. \u201cMaking this film has been a powerful experience that I will never forget. \u201c<\/p>\n<p>Synopsis:<br \/>In a crumbling Soviet Union, the Petrosyan family finds themselves as outcasts\u2014wherever they go. Their<br \/>Armenian heritage marks them for discrimination, first in their home country of Azerbaijan and then in<br \/>Russia. After finding their eternal hope through a church planted by American missionaries, the hostility<br \/>of everyday life pushes them to seek refuge in the United States. In the shadow of exile, hope became<br \/>their home. Based on a riveting true story of faith and hope set amidst great oppression, BETWEEN<br \/>BORDERS is only in theaters January 26-28, 2025.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBetween Borders\u201d was filmed in and around Bucharest, Romania. The film was written<br \/>by Adam Sjoberg, Isaac Norris, and Mark Freiburger, and produced by Isaac Norris, Jude S. Walko<br \/>(\u201cRumors of War,\u201d), Mark Freiburger and Ken Carpenter (\u201cFinding You,\u201d \u201cThe Shift\u201d). Rogier<br \/>Stoffers (\u201cRedeeming Love,\u201d \u201cSchool of Rock\u201d) was Director of Photography.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe&#8217;re not just telling a story; we&#8217;re bringing to life the incredible journey of a family that represents<br \/>hope, strength and the power of faith,\u201d said producer Isaac Norris. \u201cThe Petrosyans\u2019 resilience and grace<br \/>throughout their harrowing journey challenges us all. Their faith shines in circumstances that many of us<br \/>will never understand.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.BetweenBordersMovie.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" style=\"color: #000000;\">GET TICKETS<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script>\n!function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s){if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod?\nn.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};if(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;\nn.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';n.agent=\"plkajabi\";n.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;\nt.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];s.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s)}(window,\n                                                                      document,'script','https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\nfbq('init', '1615217018782581');\nfbq('track', \"PageView\");<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.womenoffaith.com\/blog\/a-triumph-of-true-storytelling\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0\u00a0GET TICKETS The Chosen\u2019s Elizabeth Tabish stars in faith drama based on true story of Armenian refugee family seeking asylum in U.S.; BETWEEN BORDERS to<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":294542,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[188],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-294541","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-religion"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/newhampshiredigitalnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/294541","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/newhampshiredigitalnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/newhampshiredigitalnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newhampshiredigitalnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newhampshiredigitalnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=294541"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/newhampshiredigitalnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/294541\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newhampshiredigitalnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/294542"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/newhampshiredigitalnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=294541"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newhampshiredigitalnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=294541"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newhampshiredigitalnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=294541"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
