After serving prison time for peacefully preaching outside abortion clinics, pro-life activist Bevelyn B. Williams is now the subject of a new feature film premiering in theaters nationwide Aug. 15.
According to a recent press release from Owlam Studios and Hardrich Inc., producers of the film, Pardon Me: The Bevelyn B. Williams Story traces Williams’ journey from passionate street evangelist to federal defendant, following her prosecution under the Biden administration’s enforcement of the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances (FACE) Act.

The film portrays the events surrounding her peaceful protests outside abortion clinics, the charges she faced, and the broader implications for religious liberty and free speech.
Described as a “bold and gripping” biographical drama, the film follows what the producers call a “harrowing true story” of conviction, dissent, and legal persecution.
Her eventual pardon, issued by President Donald Trump upon his return to office, serves as the film’s resolution, recognizing what the filmmakers describe as “the injustice they endured.”
“The high price of courage in a culture that punishes conviction” is central to the story, the release stated, framing the film as a tribute to those “who stand firm when the world demands silence.”
CatholicVote previously reported that Williams said that she hopes the movie helps bridge gaps between the pro-life, black, and Christian communities.
“Culturally speaking, I feel like the black community has not been as privy as it should be to abortion, because unfortunately, we take up a big chunk of the clientele for abortion,” Williams said. “So I’m loving the fact that the actors are not your conventional actors but they’re gonna open up a great opportunity for people from all communities whether its the Christian community, whether its the black community, to come and listen to this story.”
The cast includes Angela White (“Blac Chyna”), Josie Davis, Jeremy Sumpter, Columbus Short, Rampage Jackson, and others.
