Title: Missionary produces religious films.
Description: Text transcribed from caption: C-32039 MISSIONARY PRODUCES RELIGIOUS FILMS KYOTO, Japan -- Father James F. Hyatt of Seattle, Wash., a Maryknoll missionary in Japan who produced the award-winning motion picture “Six People -- Ten Legs,” directs filming of a scene. The 30-minute, black-and-white movie won top prize last December at the First Pan-Asia Festival of the International Catholic Film Office (OCIC) in India. It was cited as the best film made in Asia “inspired by the cultural and artistic riches” of that continent. “Six People -- Ten Legs” tells the story of a ten-year-old crippled boy whose selfish attitude is dramatically changed by the kindness of his classmates. The film, seen on national TV in the U.S. and Japan was made in conjunction with the Maryknoll Fathers’ Good Shepherd Mass Communications Movement in Japan.
