Breakrough Unveils Production-Distribution Unit Devoted To Fai-Based Film and Television

Breakthrough Entertainment Launches Into the Faith Category Via A Multi-Picture Agreement with Film Producer Reel Deal Guys Entertainment

For Immediate Release:

TORONTO (January 14, 2016) - Breakthrough Entertainment has broadened its programming slate into the production and distribution of faith-based film and television entertainment, entering the burgeoning faith market via a multi-picture deal with Toronto's Reel Deal Guys Entertainment. First title in the three-picture agreement is the supernatural drama Adam's Testament, written, produced and directed by Reel Deal principals Jason Barbeck and Rafael Kalamat and based on a short story by Jason Barbeck.

Adam's Testament follows the story of a young musician who had the perfect life until one day everything changed as Adam's police detective father begins a spiritual war to save his soul from angels and demons disguised as humans. The other two projects in the 3-picture pact include Christmas season feel-good movie Holiday Miracle and the drama The Find.

Breakthrough will co-produce the films with Reel Deal and handle distribution across all theatrical and media channels worldwide.

Having served the global market as a prime resource for family film and television entertainment since the formation of Breakthrough entertainment for three decades, the impressive faith-based market is a natural expansion for our company. We are excited to enter this vital market with Rafael Kalamat and Jason Barbeck, gifted filmmakers who bring an impressive track record in the production of quality faith-based works to our partnership, said Nat Abraham, a partner in Breakthrough Entertainment.

Faith-based entertainment has truly come of age, both as a market as well as a magnet for filmmakers and talent alike. Reel Deal's Jason Barbeck and Rafael Kalamat are examples of the high-level film creative talent drawn to this ever-growing entertainment category. We look forward to joining with them in bringing their compelling films to the buyers and audiences wordwide, said Breakthrough partner Peter Williamson.

Breakthrough Entertainment is the perfect home for our film projects. Breakthrough partners Nat Abraham, Ira Levy, Michael McGuigan and Peter Williamson are fully committed to the faith-based market and have demonstrated unwavering support for our film projects, said Reel Deal's Barbeck.

While we entertained numerous offers from distributors, it was immediately clear that Breakthrough Entertainment was the right choice. We are thrilled to be joined by a fellow Toronto company and look forward to a long and successful collaboration, added Kalamat.
