In this soul-warming documentary, we meet the brave Christian mothers – indoctrinated by antigay bias in their fundamentalist and Evangelical churches – who band together to protect their queer and trans children. At risk of losing their friends and communities, they make the grand leap from prejudice to Pride protests.
