I'm deeply honored and humbled that "Contact: The Divine Realm" has been recognized with both the Best Inspirational and Best Documentary awards at the Christian Film Festival. This third installment in the Contact series represents not just my vision, but the dedication and the trust of those who shared their stories with us. To have our work resonate with audiences and jurors in such meaningful ways is both validating and overwhelming, as we set out simply to ask honest questions and invite reflection on the mysteries that connect us all. 🙏

I am deeply honored to receive the Exceptional Merit Award from the Religious Faith International Film Festival for our third documentary in the Contact series ‘Contact: The Divine Realm’. This recognition affirms my belief that cinema can be a powerful catalyst for spiritual exploration and self-discovery. Throughout our lives, we are called to investigate and research our faith journeys with open hearts and curious minds—not simply accepting what we inherit, but actively seeking a deeper understanding and authentic connection to the divine. This award has inspired me to continue creating stories that encourage audiences to embark on their own spiritual investigations, to question thoughtfully, and to grow in wisdom and compassion. I would like to thank all of our interviewees (Anne Aleckson, Judy Carroll, The Very Reverend Dr. Peter Catt, Pastor Brad Smith, Dr. Gemma Regan, Josie Thomson, Andrew Radziewicz and Sheryl Gottschall) who made this project so special. regards Sharon Ann Rowland

In the space between sleep and waking, between breath and heartbeat, there exists a doorway - our ancestors knew: CONTACT comes not when we demand it, but when we surrender to the mystery. We've been fortunate to gain some traction at festivals lately. It's humbling to see the work resonate, even if we're still very much the underdog in this space…
