Carl (13) is a child in foster care, growing up is difficult enough but he has no proper family life. After many moves he arrives, settles in and is happy at his new foster home. Suddenly the same old problem crops up. How can he stop it ever happening again?

On the day after Christmas, Emmy Towne brings her boyfriend, Darryl, home to meet her family. Emmy is terrified of what will happen, having gone 0-2 with previous boyfriends. For Emmy and Darryl’s relationship to escape intact, Darryl will have to survive Emmy’s know-it-all mother, Beverly, her sweet but clueless father, Martin, her deviant sister, Grace, and her miscreant brother, Rick. An irreverent update of “Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner” for our politically correct world.

A neon sign builder and father of seven children, Ed Everett was an average man in search of his purpose. During a short term mission trip to Mexico, he would encounter a deaf child, and his life would change forever. Hearing Everett is a film about faith, love, and lifelong adventure. It’s the true life story of a family that believed that God can use anyone with a willing heart.
