Richly Ritual Dreams

Richly Beautiful...

My dream for Mud Puddle Films is to help you to dream. My belief is that as long as I continue to tell stories that matter deeply to me and to you, and to tell them in a way that is rich and beautiful, then we will be the better for it.

...and Beautiful Ritual


Our current project, Zola Jumped In, is about a girl who, when the little brother she raised is killed, turns to a gang, a neighborhood church, and pregnancy for a sense of belonging and purpose. The movie will be overflowing with ritual, emotion, music, poetry, and dance.

A Mission into Mystery


The Board of Directors just adopted a new mission statement:

In the Dominican tradition of truth seeking, Mud Puddle Films creates contemplative cinema that opens minds to mystery, hearts to hope.

The Board of Directors is also preparing to launch a campaign to invite Mud Puddle Films' friends to contribute in a special way to continuing this mission, including the Zola film.

What kinds of movies does your soul need? What else do you need so that your mind continues to be opened to mystery, your heart to hope?

Add a comment: What are your dreams, for yourself, or for Mud Puddle Films and its Torch3M partners, Black & White Music and Spiritual Magic?
