New York, NY – June 14, 2024 – Today, on Flag Day, “The Relentless Patriot” officially releases to the public, following a highly praised premiere at the Times Center two nights ago. This stirring documentary, produced by Global Ascension Studios, delves into the lives of an Italian immigrant and his son who significantly influenced American society, weaving an archetypal tale of the American century.
Joshua Macciello, president of Global Ascension Studios, emphasized the documentary’s goal of uniting viewers through a shared sense of patriotism. “In a time of division, this documentary aims to unify through patriotism. We hope it inspires viewers to stand up for their beliefs and contribute positively to their communities.” On a personal note, Macciello shares his pride and the values he instills in his children: “When my kids are here working in this event tonight and they’re seeing all the patriotism happen, all I can do is infuse them with hope to be better people and better humans. I raise my kids to be people of faith, to be truth tellers, and to respect other human beings.” He believes this approach will contribute positively to the world: “If they’re doing the right thing, then I think we’re going to be okay with the world.”
