Dir. Daniel Karslake
Daniel Karslake's brilliant documentary digs deeper into the divide between Biblical literalists and real-life homosexuals than any film before it. The results are as infuriating and heartbreaking as you'd fear, and more inspiring than you'd ever imagine. With its wealth of interview subjects—from fundamentalist families with gay kids to the religious-tolerance warriors of Soulforce to the Nobel Prize-winning Bishop Desmond Tutu—Karslake explores an age-old argument from a variety of new angles, crafting the best gay doc since The Celluloid Closet.
