SA: Father Stephen Fichter, Pastor at St. Elizabeth's in Wyckoff knows scripture. He also knows a thing or two about scripts. 

SF: So over the past several years, we were working on our film, Trinity's Triumph.

VO: Even just three people and hold up the entire world.

SA: Father Fichter co wrote and co produce a feature film. After COVID delays, it's finally been released.

SF: So it's on Apple TV, Amazon, Google play, YouTube.

VO: You are setting out on an extraordinary Odyssey to answer the highest of all calls.

SA: Veteran actor, Joe Morton portrays the mentor to three young friends who enter the seminary. The film takes a candid look at faith, friendship, celibacy, marriage and the church abuse scandal. Father Fichter started writing 25 years ago in Rome.

SF: I felt that the church and the priesthood in particular really weren't being well presented in our movies and other means of communication. And that's why I had that original idea of putting together a movie that would portray the priesthood as it really is not an idealized perfectionism nor a vilification of the few bad priests who sadly have done a lot of damage to our reputation. 
But to strike that middle ground where it's a movie that tries to described the life, the real life of a priest.

SA: And he says Trinity's Triumph is not just for Catholics, there are universal themes.

SF: So basically, the movie is about each one of these young men trying to live in the truth of his calling with a deep sense of integrity. And it's really about the endurance of their friendship as well.
