Meet the Filmmaker – Goldie Smitlener

My name is Goldie Smitlener. I am a 74 year old filmmaker and devout Christian. This film is my life’s work and I am dedicated to making it a reality. God is guiding me to make this film, no matter what challenge I must overcome. I believe that in a time of pandemic, war, and so much suffering on this planet, people need to hear this message of hope, salvation and love more than ever. 

I cannot do this alone. I am asking my fellow Christian brothers and sisters to join with me to help bring this film to the world! Please share your faith and love of Jesus with the world by donating to the film.

About the Film

The film showcases never before seen storylines based on the most thorough understanding of the human side of Jesus’s 33 years with us. It shows us a Jesus that every one of us relates to. It removes the complexities that many have wrapped around the Word of God to show us the easily understandable essence of His teachings. And how those teachings are as true today, as they were 2000 years ago, when Jesus first spoke them.

The film will be shot in Israel and other biblically significant locations. There will be no artificial sets, we will see Jesus as he was, in the places he was. It will show a man who speaks wisdom. A man who draws people to Him because His actions and words touch something very deep in us. They touch the part of us that yearns to be close to God. The film will bear testament to the essential truths that can guide lost souls back to the light of God’s love.

How this Film will Make the World a Better Place

The world is tearing itself apart with violence. Violence that grows in the soil of hatred. The world needs the message of love and understanding more than ever before. This film gives them this message.

Lost in the fear of our current time is that love, forgiveness, mercy… These are meant for all of us. For there to be balance, we must learn how to forgive, and we must learn how to ask for forgiveness. This film shows how Jesus accepted all people, understanding their faults, and showing them the path to righteousness.

As we sit in our bubbles, wearing our Covid masks, wondering if Our job, Our company, Our family will disappear in an instant, it is easy to lose HOPE. As much as anything else, the message of Jesus was that we should never lose HOPE. This film is about Hope, in these difficult, difficult days.

Why is this Film being Made?

Jesus… The name is known throughout the world, yet is taken for granted. It is the name that everyone needs to call upon and give thanks for so many things. 

What Inspired this Film?

Goldie, being a simple person, with a very simple faith that is easy to understand and put into practice in one’s life, was inspired to create Jesus God, Jesus Man to mainly solve these problems:

Risks and Challenges

Jesus did not walk an easy path. Nor will making this film be an easy path. As with all filmmaking, there are risks involved with locations and weather. There are risks when dealing with a large cast and crew. Organization is the key to managing these risks and completing the project on time and budget.
