| Summary |
Born out of Director Sharon Lewis' own muted struggle with not fitting into neat racial/Queer/Christian boxes, With Wonder takes an intimate look at the journey of members of the queer, Christian community of colour and their attempts to answer the question: Can you be both Christian and queer? In this feature-length documentary, we hear from and see diverse members of the LGBTQI+ community, including high profile queer activists and queer clerics from around the globe who share backgrounds of colonised histories. Although each participant shares how conversion therapy was a barrier for them to connect to God, With Wonder purposely does not explore the dramatic extremes or trauma of conversion therapy, nor does it give space for interpretations from biblical scholars, rather it takes us on an ethereal journey of love and finding one's way back to spiritual health. With Wonder is a love letter to God from the global BPOC LGBTQI+ community. |
