The Book of Leviticus (from Greek Λευιτικός, Leuitikos, meaning "relating to the Levites"; Hebrew: ויקרא, Wayiqra, "And He called") is the third book of the Hebrew Bible, and the third of five books of the Torah (or Pentateuch).
The English name is from the Latin Leviticus, taken in turn from Greek and a reference to the Levites, the tribe from whom the priests were drawn. It would be wrong, however, to describe Leviticus simply as a manual for priests as it concerns itself, at least equally, with the role and duties of the laity.
Leviticus rests in two crucial beliefs: the first, that the world was created "very good" and retains the capacity to achieve that state although it is vulnerable to sin and defilement; the second, that the faithful enactment of ritual makes God's presence available, while ignoring or breaching it compromises the harmony between God and the world.
The traditional view is that Leviticus was compiled by Moses, or, in less extreme form, that the material in it goes back to his time. However, the tradition is comparatively late (it dates from Josephus, a 1st century AD historian), and scholars are practically unanimous that the book had a long period of growth, that it includes some material of considerable antiquity, and that it reached its present form in the Persian period (538-332 BC).

Plot: A woman wakes up trapped inside a room with no memory of her past. As times ticks by, a bizarre mix of real and surreal characters visits her; some seeming to aid her while others torment her. Unable to escape, she must put together the pieces of a riddle to discover who she is and how she got here. But when she discovers the truth of her past, she might wish she had instead remained a prisoner to the horrors of the room. The Nightmare Box is a venture into sexual guilt through experimental horror where terror and art are combined.

Plot: Jordan's RiveR is based on a true story about finding your destiny in a world filled with contradictions and true honesty. It is based on the lives of people in the Old Testament with a 21st Century twist. Four friends all dealing with the same temptations as the people of God dealt with during biblical times. Four friends with one thing in common - some Knowledge of God, what the friends do with that knowledge leads them each down their own path. They grow apart rather than closer, as the temptations turn to sin and the clear waters of activism turns murky faster than the wolf running in the forest. At what point in our lives do we decide to save the animals in place of the humans, Jordan's RiveR takes you on a journey like no other film has and leads you into the depths of God's Grace as it is outlined in the minds of two animal rights activists.
