Opening Night Film: Wonderfully Made — LGBTQ+R(eligion)

Director: Yuval David

Rated: PG-13

Runtime: 95 min

Directed by Emmy winner Yuval David and produced by Mark McDermott, the extraordinarily moving Wonderfully Made — LGBTQ+R(eligion) is a feature-length documentary that strikes at the root of anti-LGBTQ attitudes by exploring the challenges and aspirations of LGBTQ+ Catholics. The film focuses on the Catholic Church because it is one of the largest religious organizations in the world, and because its anti-LGBTQ+ stance is well known and growing more hardline around the world. The narrative of the film is shaped by the process of a fine art project creating unprecedented, photographic iconography depicting Jesus as a member/ally of the LGBTQ+ community, portrayed by multiple LGBTQ+ models of diverse ethnicities, genders, races, sexualities, and identities. Advocate Producers include Lance Bass, Bishop Gene Robinson, Reverend Mel White, former Ireland President Mary McAleese, Andrew Tobias, Mitchell Gold, and Jane Clementi.
