    THE BUTTERFLY CIRCUS

    The Butterfly Circus is a short film created by Joshua


    and Rebekah Weigel in 2009. The production was
    completed in 12 days by a cast and crew of over 150
    people, on locations in Southern California. The short
    garnered its first award as the Grand Prize winner of
    The Doopost Film Project, and then went on to win
    subsequent awards at festivals around the world. By July
    2010, the film had already accumulated over 7 million
    collective online views primarily through posts on
    YouTube. It also featured Latino celebrity Eduardo
    Verástegui (Bella), Doug Jones who played the Pale
    Man in 'Pan's Labyrinth'. Nick Vujicic, an international
    motivational and evangelistic speaker from Australia
    who was born without arms or legs, debuted in film and
    received the Best Actor award for his starring
    performance as Will at the 2010 Method Fest
    Independent Film Festival. Along with his many life experiences, Nick recounts
    working on the film in his book titled Life Without Limits: Inspiration for a Ridiculously
    Good Life (Random House, 2010).
