Having literally grown up with the band, joining his father and bandmates on the road since infancy, Kaden was the ideal choice to meticulously film, edit, and craft this compelling narrative, bringing Pillar&#8217;s ministry and music to life on the big screen. &#8220;<em>The band has always been part of my life. I remember being a kid and riding around on their tour bus back in the 2000s.<\/em>&#8221; says director Kaden Wittig. &#8220;<em>When their comeback tour started to come together, my dad and I were talking about what a great opportunity this would be to tell the story of not just the reunion, but the history of the band and the guys and everything leading up to this moment.<\/em>&#8220;<\/p>\n<p class=\"v1mcePastedContent\">Since their formation in the late nineties, Pillar has established itself as one of Christian rock&#8217;s leading acts, releasing nine studio albums, three EPs, countless singles, and earning numerous GMA Dove Awards. Their extensive history includes years of headlining tours and festival performances, captivating hundreds of thousands of fans and amassing a significant following.<\/p>\n<p class=\"v1mcePastedContent\">For the first time, the core lineup of Rob Beckley (Vocals), Michael &#8220;Kalel&#8221; Wittig (Bass), Noah Henson (Guitars), and Lester Estelle Jr. (Drums) delve into the countless untold stories from their journey in the music industry. The documentary explores how the band&#8217;s enduring message of hope continues to inspire fans more than 25 years after their inception. The band&#8217;s inspiration for this film stems from a deep desire to encourage and inspire audiences not only through Pillar&#8217;s music but also through the untold stories beyond their public history. &#8220;<em>This\u00a0documentary is going to be powerful for anyone who knows Pillar, but I also think it&#8217;s going to touch people who don&#8217;t know us. The stories from fans and how our music touched their lives is what moves me the most<\/em>&#8221; bassist Michael &#8220;Kalel&#8221; Wittig explains. &#8220;<em>People are going to see four men who greatly appreciate this opportunity God has given us to do what we do.\u00a0 It&#8217;s not something we take for granted.<\/em>&#8220;<\/p>\n<p class=\"v1mcePastedContent\">Fans will have an exclusive opportunity to join Pillar in person for a special premiere screening of\u00a0<em>Pillar: Beyond the Frontline<\/em>.
