A faith-inspired story rooted in the legacyof Saint Nino of Georgia.

For the first time in eighteen centuries the story of Saint Nino will be told on screen. “Nino” is the story of a young girl whose faith and courage would make her an equal of the Holy Apostles. In a vision, the Holy Virgin Mary foretells Nino’s destiny as the one chosen to win the Kingdom of Iberia for Christ. With a strong will, faith and determination, young Nino embarks on harrowing journey that will challenge her faith and save a nation. Traveling through the outer reaches of the Roman Empire, Nino endures pain and lives in constant peril from the foes of Christendom – of the visible world and the world unseen. Evading her enemies, she reaches her destiny, to challenge the darkness of pagan tyranny, and bring the light of Christianity to the ancient kingdom. In “Nino,” the filmmakers will present a monumental epic from a perspective never seen before by the western audiences. With unique historical and canonical accuracy, the film will transport its audience to third-century world. The filmmakers will use stunning locations of Georgia where this true story unfolded, restoring their ancient details through the art of Computer Graphic Imagery. The Project is a major motion picture in the genre of historical drama that arrives at a time of reawakening faith, when the film industry has not satisfied audience demand for epic films about the lives of historic religious figures. The life of St. Nino provides the filmmaker a powerful storyline that combines action, historical drama, and the supernatural dimension of spiritual warfare against demonic forces.
