MARCH 2026:
CHOOSE PEACE – SHORT DOCUMENTARY

Choose Peace - written and directed by Patrick Wimp,  illustrates a simple but profound truth: peace is an active choice. It requires people willing to step in, build relationships, and remain present when situations are tense and outcomes uncertain.

For those who want to better understand what CVI looks like beyond headlines and statistics, this film offers a powerful window into the human work behind Chicago’s historic decline in violence. It is a reminder that peace is not accidental — it is chosen.

JANUARY 2026:

Our very funny film, "American Schemers" is now available to buy/rent on Amazon, Apple TV, and other major platforms. Written by and starring Michael Waller and Sydney Blackburn, directed by Jack C. Newell, and produced by Patrick Wimp. Michael and Sydney lead an all-star comic cast with deep Chicago ties.

Broke and desperate, Kara and Oly fake an inheritance to crash Wisconsin's high society. But in this small town of big egos, nosy rivals, and unraveling lies, fitting in may be the hardest scam of all.
