MEDIA ADVISORY, Nov. 6 /Christian Newswire/ -- Cloud Ten Pictures Inc., the Christian film production and distribution house behind such hits as the LEFT BEHIND and APOCALYPSE film series, will release its latest feature film, THE RIVER WITHIN, to stores nationwide on November 10, 2009. Cloud Ten is also releasing the inspirational film via its CHURCH CINEMAS PROGRAM (see www.cloudtenpictures.com/site/churchcinemas).

Beautifully filmed along the Spring River in Northeast Arkansas, THE RIVER WITHIN, from writer/director Zac Heath, tackles some of life's largest questions. Protagonist Jason returns home from law school seeking a quiet place to study for his upcoming bar exam, but is pressured into becoming a youth pastor. Suddenly his world, and his presumed place in it, are turned upside down and he finds himself haunted by the question: "What am I doing here?" THE RIVER WITHIN explores relationships between father and son, pastor and congregant, and God and man; and broaches head-on the age-old human dilemma of discerning God's plan for each of us.

While THE RIVER WITHIN will be debuted on DVD on November 10, it has already enjoyed a successful limited theatrical run earlier this year. The film will be distributed domestically on DVD to the secular and Christian markets through E1 Entertainment (www.e1distribution.com), and to all other markets directly by Cloud Ten Pictures.

Heath is excited to share the film's message with a nationwide audience through Cloud Ten's distribution. "God was with us through every step making this movie, providing strength, peace, confidence and inspiration," recounts Heath, and "it is that sense of peace and purpose that I hope audiences take from the film."

Long known as a leading producer of Christian films, Cloud Ten has steadily increased its influence as a distributor of independently-produced films and television programs, such as THE GENIUS CLUB, TREASURE BLIND and the INSPIRED AMBITION TV series. "Cloud Ten's mission is to provide quality Christian-themed entertainment to an audience eager for inspirational content," explains Cloud Ten's CEO, André van Heerden. Cloud Ten owner and founder, Paul Lalonde adds "THE RIVER WITHIN has a universal message about finding your path in life, and it will touch everyone who sees it. This is one of those movies that will change the way the world looks at Christian film."
