Movie Info & Cast

Synopsis

Love, faith and civil rights collide in a southern town as evangelical Christians and drag queens step into the spotlight to dismantle stereotypes. Taking a personal, and often comical look at negotiating differences between religion and belief through performance, political action, and partnership, gospel drag shows and passion plays set the stage for one hell of a show.

This short but powerful film is extremely important in the MAGA era when all our civil rights victories as a nation are constantly in danger of being overturned. I also think it’s important for people to know that the true message of Christianity is love and acceptance, despite however many of the religion’s followers have twisted it to the contrary.

Favoring the superficial over the substantive, The Gospel of Eureka keeps skirting opportunities to excavate experience.

The documentary is uniquely attuned to the fickle whims of history, politics, and biographical circumstance.
