Film expected to impact culture for life

    

October BabyAmerican Family Studios, an arm of the American Family Association, is set to release its first major motion picture this spring, and one movie critic expects it to make a huge impact on the culture.

"They adopted me because my birth mother tried to abort me. I guess I wasn't supposed to survive, and I barely did," the main character, Hannah, shares in an excerpt from the film.

October Baby, which was briefly released in theaters in Alabama and Mississippi last October, is set to go nationwide next month. Bob Waliszewski of Focus on the Family's Plugged In tells OneNewsNow how much he likes the movie.

"I love the fact that we have a movie that underscores once again in a very creative way just how valuable every single human life is," he notes.

Waliszewski believes the film, which features veteran actors John Schneider and Jasmine Guy, could make an impact on society, "especially if folks who don't typically come from the pro-life side of the equation or the faith community see it."

"I think it can help break down some walls and help present life in a creative way as being very, very positive -- all life," the critic adds.

October Baby hits theaters on March 23.
