Why EVERYONE in Ohio and abroad should support this movie...
Every bit helps...Any support no matter how small is greatly appreciated!
The Wager encompasses the brevity of the life of a man named Bruce, with just about as much hardship that could possibly be encumbered on any one person. And Bruce messed up just about as much as anyone could, in fact he had done some very very bad things. But, that all comes to an abrupt end when Bruce loses the wager and is thrust back in time to see his life, and the heinous acts he did, but from the perspective and eyes of those he brutally hurt. A Journey that will forever alter broken life.
We are all incredibly passionate about this film, and even more committed to making sure it is equipped with everything it needs to be done right. Family friendly films are on the decline, for that reason Clean Screen Productions specializes in films with inspirational viewing pleasure.
There is a lot of excitement behind this movie and the impact it will make on communities. Though it is not the central theme, The Wager targets the opioid crisis in Ohio. At least 4,149 Ohioans died from unintentional drug overdoses in 2016, a 36 percent leap from just the previous year, when Ohio had by far the most overdose by deaths in the nation, according to figures from county coroners. This trend has continued to climb where it is now projected that Ohio leads the nation in opioid related deaths. This film will impact Ohio and abroad!
We had a great response from those that know this message must get to the masses, and helped us get the initial budget, now its your chance to support this awesome initiative! The minimum goal is set at 15K to help with overhead, post-production special effects, marketing and any arising needs. If we exceed our goal it just means better effects and vast marketing campaigns.

“It is very exciting to see a movie planning to be filmed in Pickaway County,” said Brian Stewart, Pickaway County Commissioner. “I am grateful to Mr. Gloyd for choosing to bring this project to our community and giving many great aspects of our rural culture and local economy a chance to shine.”
-Brian Stewart, Pickaway County Commissioner
"This could really open up doors for Ashville and the people who live in this community. In a time when the world has lost its way, faith and hope is the only anchor. I believe whole heartily that when you combine passion and Christian vision it is the ultimate recipe for a positive return of your work. This is more than just a movie being filmed in a small town, it is rather a large idea and message being presented by a small community."
–JimBob Welsh/President or the Ashville Museum/Area Heritage Society
“I am so excited about Jim Gloyd’s development of his story The Wager…its a fresh way to come at story telling…I am excited to see where Jim goes with this…and I can’t wait to see it on the screen soon.”
-Television and Movie Producer Brian Wells
What are others saying:
“ARE YOU KIDDING ME?????? I planned to read a little bit of the screenplay between this morning, and just read straight through lunch instead... couldn't put it down!”
“I read it three times, and wept every time... it really hit home.”
“I have goosebumps! It really is unlike anything I have ever seen or read. I am fascinated by your insanely creative approach to Bruce reliving his mistakes... THROUGH THE EYES OF ANOTHER!!!!”
“I loved it! The script has a unique and interesting take on how one would find redemption. It’s a very emotional journey, and I found myself moved to tears in the end... it’s powerful! And I pray that God will use it for his glory to reach others.”
“Wow! Great script! I loved it.”
"The Wager gave me chills, tears, and joy as I read the script. You get to see God's providence in Bruce's life. Like Moses, Bruce was pushed out into the waters of life. But God placed people in his life to help guide him through his path of crime and drugs to the saving grace of God. Then there's the obvious presence of darkness that exist in this world but even more powerful is the awesome presence of God that can and does overcome all things".
“I had a feeling it would be great, but it isn’t... it is incredible…How has this never been done before? BRILLIANT!”
