Michigan Made Movie "BELIEVE AGAIN" has been released on DVD

The DVD of Novi made movie entitled "BELIEVE AGAIN" has been released. "BELIEVE AGAIN" made theatrical debut last March, and it was selected at International Family Film Festival in Hollywood in May.

This movie was made to encourage people who have dreams or who have a hard time. The story is about an older man who is forced into unexpected retirement but finds his old dreams, and tries to make it come true.

Tim Kaiser, who is known as Michigan local actor, played the lead character.
In fact, he made his dreams come true in a new life after his retirement and has appeared in 21 films in 2 years.

Tim said, "I have been through difficult experiences in life where I tried and failed, but needed to keep on going anyway. I enjoyed being in the film because I could relate to the character I played. The most important things in life do not always come easy, but take a lot of hard work. I think this film will inspire the viewer to never give up on their dreams and to keep trying even when success seems unattainable."

The director, Noriko M Kambara, said, "The only way that we can succeed is to keep trying until we succeed." When she started making this film, she just came to Michigan. Film making was very challenging thing for her. She was in IT industry before, everything was so different from where she was.
"I had no connection, no experience, no money. But anyway keep doing until completed believing in the bright future. Thanks to passionate actors, crews and heart warming American spirit, we could finish this film."

At that time, Michigan was still in a hostile economic environment.
According to Noriko, the motivation for making this film was a man she met who lost his job and hope. He gave up his dream before starting because of his age. Noriko said, "I believe everyone has potential regardless of age. I wanted to make a movie that inspires people like him. Actually this is my first film, so there are a lot of things that should be improved. But we decided to make it public to encourage people. I hope this film inspire some people who watch it."
