My name is Andy Bowles, I'm an actor and filmmaker, My website , I live in the NYC area. My production company is APB Productions. Production Company Website . I have made a few award-winning low budget films.
"Nothing Short of A Miracle" is a Christmas movie idea that has been in my head for a long time. The birth of my newborn son Wylder sparked a creative flare in me. It added a new thought into the Christmas movie idea. Inspired by the idea I ran with it, creating a movie I could act in with him as a baby this winter. I wrote it to be made inexpensively like all the award-winning low budget movies I have made. The story takes place all outside on the streets and parks of NYC as a backdrop, with the exception of inside Grandma’s house.
The world is filled with a bunch of content that isn't really positive in its messages. "Nothing Short of A Miracle" I designed to be a very clean movie. No curse words, prays to God and there is a Guardian Angel hero. It's a fun movie. It's a beautiful story. It's my best creative work to date and it's worth making.
As a filmmaker I have a studio and own all the equipment needed to film with 2 cameras in 6k resolution and edit a low budget movie.
All donations or profits from "Nothing Short of a Miracle" apparel will go towards financing the production and paying labor to the cast and crew. The more money raised, the more hands-on set and in post-production we can afford helping create a better-quality movie.
I will complete the film and get it distributed on streaming platforms.
With each donation or apparel purchase I will give a "special thanks" credit in the credits and on the IMDB. IMDB Page
Just make sure I know you donated and I have your name and correct spelling.
"Nothing Short of A Miracle" Synopsis.
On Christmas Eve in New York City, exhausted new father David Carter is running on hope, bad judgment, and borrowed time. A struggling entrepreneur desperate to secure his family’s future, David has risked everything on a promising celebrity-driven brand deal—financed with money borrowed from a ruthless crime boss, Julius Romano. When a holiday payment delay leaves David thousands of dollars short, his carefully balanced life collapses in a single morning.
As David races across a wintry Manhattan with his newborn son in tow, his attempts to stall, negotiate, and scrape together cash only deepen the danger. The situation turns catastrophic when Chase, Julius’s cold and unpredictable enforcer, kidnaps David’s baby as collateral—giving him until nightfall to deliver the money or lose his son forever.
What follows is a breathless, city-spanning odyssey through streets, churches, cafés, and back alleys as David begs, barters, and sacrifices everything he owns in a desperate attempt to make things right. His marriage fractures under the weight of fear and betrayal, while law enforcement closes in on Julius’s operation—threatening to ignite consequences far beyond David’s control.
Guiding David through his darkest moments is Eddie, a mysterious, old-fashioned stranger who appears at key crossroads, offering wisdom, comfort, and uncanny insight. As the hours slip away, David is forced to confront the true cost of his ambition, the meaning of fatherhood, and the limits of what money can fix.
Set entirely over one tense winter day and night, "Nothing Short of a Miracle" is a grounded supernatural thriller and emotional urban drama taking place on the holiest night of the year. A story of hope, faith and a Christmas miracle.
Thank you
Andy Bowles
