A SOZO FILMS PRODUCTION
A new film challenging youth to STOP THE VIOLENCE and help them break the cycle of crime, violence, and gangs.
TRULIFE depicts how our youth today are getting involved in drugs, gangs, social media dis-rapping and crime, and how their bad choices lead them to being another statistic in the justice system or, even worse, dead. Our goal is to introduce them to a life of faith and positivity, with hope to transform their lives and break the generational cycle of low self-worth and hopelessness. By doing so, we create a culture where our youth can thrive.
Most of these youth are cornered by obstacles, powerless to resist, and destined to fail. But we see hope and potential in every young life and our message to them is: You matter, not only to us, but to God.

A FEATURE PRESENTATION EXPERIENCE WITH A MISSION TO:
END DRUG USE.
Our hope is to introduce youth to a life of faith and positivity with a hope to transform their lives.
END GANG ACTIVITY.
We desire to break the cycle of low self-worth and hopelessness among inner city youth and show them healthy community.
END DIS-RAP CULTURE.
We see hope and potential in every life and want to see inner city youth receive for themselves and communicate to their peers the message that they matter; not only to us, but to God.
END GUN VIOLENCE.
Our aim is not to glorify or condone gun violence, but to meet inner city youth where they are by depicting what they experience every day, and ultimately, offering them a path out.

“We have several students who have been impacted by gun violence, TRULIFE showed the realities of that violence to our youth and started the process of our youth understanding that there are different ways to handle conflict and taught the importance of human life.”
— Carlos Fernando Portillo - Youth For Christ - Suncoast, FL
“When Bishop Freeze asked which of our students have been affected by gun violence and EVERY hand rose I was in utter shock. I figured half the group, but not every student. Some students don’t open up about it because of the trauma it brings up. TRULIFE not only sheds light on what is plaguing our youth BUT it also helps students process the issues in their life in a venue with adults who care about them.”
— Ben Garrett - 180 House Youth For Christ - Suncoast, FL
