A Movie You Can't Afford to Miss. The Call of the Entreprenuer with Michael Novak and Robert Sirico
"A merchant banker. A failing dairy farmer. A refugee from Communist China. One risked his savings. One risked his farm. One risked his life. Why do their stories matter? Because how we view entrepreneurs—as greedy or altruistic, as virtuous or vicious—shapes the destinies of individuals and nations."
That was enough. It was enough to move the DVD of The Call of the Entreprenuer from my desk to my DVD player in the late hours of the night.
After watching the trailer I was impressed. It was encouraging to see something that was high in both quality and content. It struck a chord on the role of entreprenuers and continued to break down the divide between faith and business, perception and reality. The movie artfully combined a 50,000 foot big picture view with the the 500 foot view of personal, real life stories of people making a difference in their community and around the world.
The video is produced by the Acton Media. I highly recommend catching a premiere (Check the site to see if one is coming to your area). You can view the trailer by clicking the top link. You can also learn more about it by clicking on their website: http://www.calloftheentrepreneur.com/.
Right now they are in the process of working out broadcast agreements. In terms of general distribution, they are currently expecting a late November public release date. They currently have it set up on their web-site that interested parties can pre-order a copy on-line and they will ship the film as soon as it’s available.
