Today, we want to highlight the fantastic contributions of Alejandro Rodriguez, a key member of our Fabiola team. Alejandro Rodriguez first reached out to us through the Catholic Creators platform, offering his editing skills for our project. It was the first time we had ever considered letting someone edit our footage, and while it was a bit nerve-racking, we realized that allowing talented volunteers to contribute would only benefit the project. Not long after our film week, we sent the raw footage to Alejandro Rodriguez. Incredibly, he had a rough draft ready before we had even recovered from the filming process! One of his personal touches—the Song of Solomon slide at the end of the scene—was a beautiful addition that we absolutely loved. Alejandro Rodriguez worked closely with Aaron P Kessler on the coloring side and then plugged in the music once it was finalized. In addition to editing, Alejandro Rodriguez polished and completed the three dubbed versions of the Pilot scene. His commitment to the project didn’t stop there—he also expressed interest in acting, and we’re thrilled that he’ll be fulfilling the role of both lead editor and Torquatus, whom he has nicknamed "the Judas character." Alejandro Rodriguez looks forward to his upcoming scenes and continues to help spread the word about the project through social media. His dedication and passion for this film are truly appreciated. Thank you, Alejandro Rodriguez, for everything you do!

Join the Fray Alongside Martyrs and Cardinals Although we often discuss how Ancient Rome during Fabiola is much like our own time, there’s another important piece we haven’t talked enough about. Faustina here to share something I recently discovered. Cardinal Wiseman, the author of Fabiola, lived in a time when the media—mostly books—was not fit for Christian audiences. Like us at Industrious Family Films, he set out to reverse the trend, writing books filled with Christian heroes, and Fabiola was one result of his efforts. Cardinal Wiseman, Sts. Sebastian, Pancratius, Agnes, and our team today all strive to bring forth the good and beautiful into a darkened world. In Fabiola, these saints lived in a pagan world where watching children torn apart by wild beasts was common entertainment. Yet they chose to shine as lights in this darkness, influencing those around them with their beautiful lives. We now live in a post-Christian society where ancient vices resurface. Like Cardinal Wiseman, we believe it’s time to provide true stories of faith and courage. Join Industrious Family Films in this battle by supporting Fabiola and standing with the saints to fight for our children's innocence. There’s no better time than now to contribute. This Lent, we’re offering spiritual bouquets to contributors as we fight both spiritually and culturally for Christ the King. Join the movement by supporting Fabiola today. Fight the good fight—you’re in good company. fabiolamovie.com #fabiolamovie #faithandfilm #industriousfamily
