A college drama class gave me language for something I'd been experiencing in church my entire life.
That moment didn't make me an atheist, but it changed how I understood my faith.
What was the moment you saw something differently and couldn't unsee it?

New research shows that 80 million Americans are afraid to express religious doubts. The documentary HEATHENS follows five of them when they stopped pretending, paid the price of truth, and rebuilt free, joyful lives. I found the film moving, even shocking.Catch an upcoming screening in SF, LA or NY. With US mid-terms coming up, it's a good time to examine beliefs and values.heathens.movie
Five Damned Good People. Millions of stories worth telling.
HEATHENS premieres this weekend at the 29th United Nations Association Film Festival.
We're bringing life beyond religion out of the shadows and onto the world stage.
Your story deserves to be told, too.
