This is HOT
Breaking Glass Pictures has acquired North American rights to the comedic, raw documentary "Jesus Meets The Gay Man." The film will be released on January 9th on DVD ($19.99) and VOD through iTunes, Amazon Instant, and through local cable and satellite providers.
"I didn't write this documentary for LGBT people, I didn't write this documentary for Christian people, I wrote this for human people," said director Jean-Claude Lafond. "This isn't a film for just one group. It's a film for everyone to enjoy."
A story of reconciliation, forgiveness and renewal wrapped in Monty Python-like sketches and a jazzy dance number, "Jesus Meets The Gay Man" is a fun documentary that will have you see Jesus in a new light, while at the same time convincing you to work on your abs! Developed by looking at the questions of what Jesus would have said or done if He had met a gay person, the film aims to bridge the gap between Christians and the homosexual community, who have been at odds on this issue, with critical thinking and humor. In this age of so much information on the Bible and on the topic of homosexuality, can the LGBTQIA and the Christians find forgiveness?
DVD Special Features will include deleted scenes, over two hours of additional interview footage, and more.
