save me

no. 41 Save Me

I'm shocked at how well the topic was broached - the church and homosexuality. The story is based around a "recovery" house for gay men. It's not brainwashing, it's not a total come to Jesus. The use of confessional like fourth wall, direct to the camera, really breaks down the characters. It's about a man who realizes his life can both be in love with a man and walking with Christ. It's also about a mother who turned out her gay son who in turn overdosed - she is trying to save other young men to prove to herself that she will not be turned away by God at the Judgment Day.

IT REEKED ALBY! Far from great, but it was honest and respectful of the material.
