Riverton, Utah ¾Approaching
Saratov: A Director's Journey
In October 2013, THE
SARATOV APPROACH started a historical journey in movie theaters.
But that's only part of the story. Hear writer and director
Garrett Batty share his experience of bringing this story to the screen and be
inspired by some of the incredible behind-the-scenes miracles that occurred in
the process.
Garrett Batty
graduated from BYU Film School in 2000. He and his wife moved to
Hollywood, where he began working as an editor. Years later he wrote and
directed his first film, Scout Camp.
After working on several projects for the LDS Church, he accepted a
full-time position producing Mormon Messages and other film and video
content. In 2013 he released his first theatrical feature, The Saratov Approach, which continues to
introduce new audiences to missionary work. He served
a Spanish-speaking mission in the New York, New York South Mission
and has served in elders quorum presidencies, high priests
group leaderships, bishoprics, and as a stake executive secretary. Garrett
is happily married to Sherrie Lynn Fisher, from Kuna, Idaho, and they live
in Draper with their four children.
