Flim: The Armor of Light

May 12, 2016 @ 6:30 pm - 8:30 pm

armor-of-light-print-ad

In The Armor of Light, two people of faith come together to explore the contradictions of a nation rife with gun violence: a famously anti-abortion evangelical minister risks losing followers when he questions the morality of gun ownership, while a grieving mother dedicates herself to creating change after the shooting of her unarmed teenage son.

The film is also a courageous look at our fractured political culture and an assertion that it is, indeed, possible for people to come together across deep party lines to find common ground.

Co-sponsors: Institute for Policy Studies, the Indie Lens Pop-Up,  Busboys and Poets
