ATLANTA, July 6 /PRNewswire/ -- 1720 Entertainment (1720) is pleased to
announce that it has entered into a strategic partnership agreement with
Possibility Pictures. The agreement marks the beginning of 1720 and
Possibility Pictures working closely together to fund, produce, market, and
release faith based films first theatrically, and then in all media across the
globe.

Possibility Pictures, headquartered in Orlando, FL, has emerged in an
explosive manner as the production leader of Christian based films.
Possibility Pictures has assembled a team of gifted veterans, led by Director
David Nixon, the Producer of both Facing the Giants and Fireproof. Both films
were widely acclaimed and highly successful, with Fireproof recently named as
the #1 Independent Film of 2008 and projected to gross over $100 million in
revenues. Possibility Pictures is currently in production on a new project,
Letters To God, a film inspired by a true story about a young boy's battle
with cancer and how his letter writing campaign to God helps all those around
him find faith, hope, and the ability to cope with this illness. Letters To
God is already garnering widespread attention and enthusiasm from the
Christian community, leading Cancer organizations, and national sponsors.

"I am absolutely thrilled to form this key strategic partnership with
Possibility Pictures. Without question, God is responsible for bringing our
two companies together and I am excited to see what He has in store for us.
The leadership team at Possibility Pictures is truly amazing and I have great
faith that our partnership can be a powerful force in doing vital Kingdom
work, by bringing hope to all across the globe through film. The partnership
aligns perfectly with 1720's vision and mission, and the synergies with our
multi-media platform will also create some enormous opportunities." - Terry K.
Johnson, President/CEO, 1720 Entertainment.

Possibility Pictures Executive Producer Tom Swanson stated, "We have been

with us both spiritually and ethically. 1720 represents those same values and
our partnership will allow us to tell our God given stories to an even broader
audience."
