Synopsis

Offering insight into the current struggles over sexuality within organized religion, Pam Walton's groundbreaking documentary tells the stories of three openly gay and lesbian Midwestern Lutheran pastors who have taken a stand against their own church. The film clearly and skillfully outlines the contradictions within a church that supposedly welcomes lesbians and gay men -- but at the same time condemns them.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 3

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
