A powerful US Senator built his campaign career on a conservative platform. Most recently, he's been challenged for his tough stance against embryonic stem cell research. When a tragedy devastates his family, he is faced with a crucial choice: his family or his philosophical beliefs. Can he be true to both?
HOPE (the movie) offers viewers a dramatic, heartrending glimpse into the heart of a family that must make tough choices when a shocking crime breaks their hearts. You'll meet other families who are challenged by chronic illnesses and who reach achingly toward the hope offered by stem cell research.
Hope... in Vitro (the novel) was released earlier this year. Chawla brings ten years as a neurologist to his novel, giving it medical authenticity as well as vivid emotional depth garnered from treating hundreds of chronically ill patients.
The compelling and timely plot of Hope... in Vitro drew the interest of Midwest movie makers. A movie based on the book, titled HOPE (Starring: Bob Paisley and Jan Chapman from Kansas City and Inder Mishra from New Delhi), is in the post production phase. Rich Ambler a Kansas film director has directed this movie. The screenplay has been written by Shelley Chawla, Dianne Wilson and Chris Ryan. Movie was shot in Kansas City and New Delhi.

It's now considering to take over HOPE and become the worldwide exclusive sales agent for this interesting film.
