Celebrate Our Success At The ETHOS Film Festival
Celebrate with us as we accept the Peace Award from the ETHOS Film Festival! Our film won despite the fact that Marked by Grace: Compassion Prevails on the WWII Battlefield is still in the making. We are incredibly excited by this big step forward!
Why Is This Special?
Receiving an award from a film festival like ETHOS is ideal for our documentary. ETHOS is an organization dedicated to promoting peace and inclusivity. Their team has a vision for a better future through films. They provide filmmakers with a platform to showcase their works and craft a global community of people with the same dreams for the future.
Veterans Day Speech
In November, ZenLily Films’s talented director and producer Stephanie Manesis attended ETHOS’s award ceremony in Los Angeles to give a 5-minute speech about peace and forgiveness at the beginning of the festival.

This was an especially significant moment for us, as the talk occurred on Veterans Day. We are so grateful to have the opportunity to honor our veterans and spread a message of peace in a room of over 200 people.
Spreading Love Through Film
Oftentimes for small film companies, it’s difficult to gain the momentum that people really want to see for their film. Awards like this help us immensely with our end goal. Our organization’s main goal is to spread beauty, harmony, and love through our projects, and the Peace Award is truly the perfect way to illustrate our company vision.
