Recently, I had the opportunity to review the movie Captive (on DVD) provided by FishFlix.com. FishFlix.com was started by Dr. Enis Sakirgil, a Turkish Christian, over a decade ago when he was working on the movie – Apostle Paul and the Earliest Churches.

Later when Dr. Sakirgil and his family immigrated to the United States, he began selling the movie over the internet. Soon he expanded into selling other Christian Movies, giving birth to FishFlix.com.
FishFlix.com is based in Mora, Minnesota. The company goal is to “glorify God by providing Amazing Customer Service, Unbelievable Prices and Great Variety for Christian Movie Fans.” They continue to partner with Christian ministries in Turkey to help spread the gospel in one of the world’s most unreached regions.
