   GRACE CARD MOVIE NEWS CONFERENCE   October 7, 2009   10:30 a.m.   Tillman Police Station   426 Tillman Street   Memphis, TN 38112    Movie Website:  gracecardmovie.com    Movie Summary   

In racially charged Memphis, Tennessee, a searing personal tragedy has left police officer Mac McDonald a bitter, angry soul, blaming a long downward spiral on minorities, "the system" and God Himself.

Who better to bring this simmering kettle to a boil than an African-American pastor-cop named Sam, who's just been promoted in front of Mac, and assigned as his new partner?

When a routine burglary call goes horribly wrong, Mac McDonald hits bottom, and stares into the Abyss of losing it all--career, family, and any reason to go on. His only lifeline is Grace, offered by the God he's abandoned, through the gift of a man he can barely stand.

The question is, will he take it?

THE GRACE CARD. Filming begins October 14
