We enjoy watching good movies and have a wide collection so when the Homeschool Review Crew
was offered the opportunity to receive the movie "Trust Fund" I quickly signed up. In exchange for
watching and reviewing Trust Fund we received the dvd free of charge.
Mapelle Films offers this movie which is produced by an early homeschool graduate, Isaac Alongi
who has worked for 15 years with Sandra Martin writer/director of Trust Fund. This movie received
the dove seal for age 12+ and younger children when watched as a family. Trust Fund is a modern
day story of the Prodigal Daughter and very well put together so it can be enjoyed while learning
what many experience today. There's a free downloadable study guide and movie clips that can be
used in conjunction with the movie for families to dig deeper or use in small study groups.
Reese is one of two daughters and seems to get away with anything and everything she wants with
her dad. Eventually some of the things she has gotten into catch up with her and she almost looses
everything. Her sister, Audrey is the one who is more level-headed, working with her dad at the
everything. Her sister, Audrey is the one who is more level-headed, working with her dad at the
successful company, earning her way in life unlike her sister. She is very resentful of Reese which
causes turmoil in the family but.........you'll have to watch Trust Fund to see what happens.
I had planned to watch this with Jacob but he's been doing mission work and had his wisdom teeth
taken out so I enjoyed just some me time with this one. Once things settle down I know he will watch
this and hopefully learn something from it. He's got two older brothers and struggles with "why do
you still do for them when they have done bad things?" I've told him that's how God is with ALL
people and we as Christians are trying to be like Christ.
I would highly recommend this movie to families and even youth group movie night would be great.
I was so happy I got to review this movie because we always need reminders in life.
