LOVELAND, Colo., Feb. 14, 2013 /Christian Newswire/ -- The concept of hell will be explored at Lifetree Café community forums from coast to coast during the week of February 24, 2013.

The program, titled "Hell: Does It Really Exist?" features a screening of the award-winning short film "Admissions," starring Academy Award nominee James Cromwell. Cromwell has appeared in such noted films as The Green Mile, L.A. Confidential, and Babe.

The film focuses on an Israeli couple and a Palestinian man who find themselves waiting in the Admissions Room for the afterlife. They are faced with two doors: Heaven and Hell.

"Studies show that more than 60 percent of Americans believe in hell," says Lifetree representative Craig Cable. "But many struggle with the concept and dismiss it as a myth. We'll explore the controversy."

Lifetree Café is a national network of venues where people gather for conversation about life and faith in a casual coffeehouse-type setting.
