The charism and history of the Oblate Sisters of the Most Holy Redeemer continue to find new avenues to reach the world. The film “If All Doors Close” has just taken another leap into the realm of streaming. Although the feature film was already part of the Amazon Prime catalogue, as of today it expands its availability and arrives on screens in Argentina, Colombia, the Dominican Republic, Guatemala, Uruguay, and Venezuela.
A new digital window to our history
Beyond traditional theaters, the film’s availability on a massive platform like Amazon Prime represents an invaluable opportunity for the Congregation. We live in an age of one-click link sharing, and having this feature film available in these six new territories greatly facilitates reaching a much wider and more diverse audience. It’s the perfect tool for anyone, from their phone or living room, to connect with the reality of the women we support.
The film takes its name from the inspiring words of our founder, Father Serra: “If all doors are closed to you, I will open one.” And that is precisely what this digital expansion achieves: opening a vast door to share the work begun in 1864 by Mother Antonia. Instead of being limited to circles already close to the Oblate Family, the streaming format allows this testament of commitment to equality, justice, and liberation to naturally permeate the recommendations of thousands of platform users.
For communities, social projects, and lay people connected to the Oblates in countries where the film is available on Amazon Prime, this availability is also a fantastic resource. From now on, inviting friends, colleagues, or family members to discover the essence of the mission is as simple as saying, “Look for it today on Amazon Prime. “
