 The Undershepard Presented in collaboration with TV ONE
Directed By Russ Parr Starring Isaiah Washington, Lamman Rucker, Malinda Williiams and Lou Gossett Jr. Written, directed and executive produced by nationally syndicated radio personality and filmmaker Russ Parr, The Undershepherd tells the controversial tale of two ministers, who, although originally best friends and brothers in Christ, find their relationship tested by access to power, money and greed. Isaiah Washington stars in the role of Lawrence "LC" Case, an ambitious and charismatic minister overcome by greed and ego who uses the pulpit to further his own agenda and ultimately lead his congregation astray. LC's best friend, Roland, starring Lamman Rucker, struggles to get his grassroots ministry off the ground and doesn't enjoy the same level of success which generates controversy and conflict between the two men. Two Screenings : *Date: Saturday, August 24, 2013 at 5:00 pm at Troutt Theater
*Date: Sunday, August 25, 2013 at 4:00 pm Manna From Heaven Dinner House

 Winnie Mandela A TD Jakes Presentation Directed By Darrell Roodt Starring Jennifer Hudson, Terrance Howard, Elias Koteas and Wendy Crewson.
This intimate, in depth and unbiased film reveals the enigma that is Winnie Mandela, by exploring both her personal and political life. The audience is given a rare glimpse into Winnie's strict yet happy rural upbringing where the foundations were laid for her faith, compassion and indomitable resolve. As a young social worker in 1950's Johannesburg, her beauty, style and character captivated the political activist and Tembu prince, Nelson Mandela. Together, they personified the rising aspirations and political awakening of their people, and in so doing, inspired a nation. Through her fierce determination and dauntless courage, she survived her husband's imprisonment, continuous harassment by the security police, banishment to a small Free State town, betrayal by friends and allies, and more than a year in solitary confinement - all the while keeping the struggle flame alight and the name of Nelson Mandela alive. A sensitive and balanced portrayal, the film nevertheless thoroughly investigates and honestly examines the controversies that dogged Winnie Mandela in recent years. The film takes the audience on a remarkable journey of understanding, painting a rich, warm and vivid portrait of one of the world's most charismatic, yet enigmatic women.
