The multi-award winning independent filmmaking company Noble Brothers Productions, are back with a new trailer for the upcoming short film, The Book Of Life. Described as an experimental Christian drama, The Book Of Life co-stars, and was written, produced and directed by John-William Noble, and stars brother, actor and Noble Brothers performer Graeme Noble starring as a male drug addict whose life changes for the better in a chance meeting with a Christian woman.
The shortfilm follows the usual formula by which brothers Graeme and John-William Noble usually create projects-that is, one with character-driven story telling, drama and martial arts action sequences, delivered with a positive Christian message while still aiming to entertain audiences of all denominations. Their long-established company mission is entirely founded on Christian beliefs, as the brothers have been in church for their entire lives, and have since been inspired to invoke ways of sharing their faith through film, while exploring their admiration for Hong Kong-stylized action choreography. As such, Graeme himself choreographed the sequences, applying his own established knowledge of action cinema with well over 1,000 martial arts movies in his own library.
You can tell he’s a fan right?
The 20-minute shortfilm was the product of inspiration that followed upon Graeme having recently moved to the sub-provincial city of Xi’an in China back in February. While there, he met several new friends who shared a mutually collective interest in making movies. And with this, The Book Of Life began its wide-scale production in several locations throughout Scotland, including Edinburgh, Isle of Skye, Aberdeen and Eilean Donan Castle. Filming also continued in Xi’an, as well as in Hong Kong, Beijing and the Great Wall of China.
The short film is now planning to head to the film festival circuit, which is familiar territory for Graeme and John-William who recently swept up a fresh batch of festival awards earlier this year for their latest feature, Call Of Babylon.
