Jim Britts is a graduate of Biola’s prestigious film school who found his life’s calling when he began working with teens. As a veteran youth worker, Britts wrote the script to tell the story of the choices and challenges he sees teens facing today.
“I really wanted to convey the powerful message that simply by reaching out to the hurting and lonely at your school, you have the power to save lives,” Britts says. “Just about every issue dealt with in the script/book I’ve seen countless times with students I mentor and work with.”

Can a movie change the world? No, but a person who sees it can.
TO SAVE A LIFE is more than a movie. It’s the difference you can make when you use your influence and time for others — in your family, neighborhood, campus, community, or world. Some people are just dying to be heard and accepted. Imagine if we took the time to show people they have value. Listen. Reach out. Engage. TO SAVE A LIFE dares — no, inspires — you to.
TO SAVE A LIFE is a cool movie. But it’s only a movie. You can change the world.
