? FILM 1: Mama Bears: Faith, Family, and Advocacy (2022)
Watch the trailer: https://youtu.be/ltg8aFSrLB0

Daresha Kyi’s inspiring documentary “Mama Bears” examines the profound spiritual journey undertaken by conservative Christian mothers confronted with the reality of their children’s true identities. Deeply rooted in faith, these women experience significant spiritual questioning and are compelled to re-examine their beliefs with the reality of their children’s true selves to choose love.  The film closely follows their transformative process, revealing how these mothers move beyond long-held convictions to embrace and support their children.

Online virtual spaces become sources of encouragement and guidance, empowering the mothers to advocate for their children, fostering acceptance and inclusion within their own families and the wider community.

? FILM 2: 1946: The Mistranslation That Shifted Culture (2022)
WATCH THE TRAILER: https://youtu.be/00QOkOE49qM

“Through the personal lens of director Sharon ‘Rocky’ Roggio and her relationship with her evangelical pastor father, Pastor Sal Roggio, the film explores the origins of the word ‘homosexual’ in modern English Bibles. It traces this term to a 1946 mistranslation in the Revised Standard Version and examines its profound effect on Christian perspectives toward LGBTQIA+ individuals. This documentary highlights the efforts of faith leaders, scholars, and activists challenging damaging interpretations and advocating for full inclusion of the Pride Community, Faith expression and society at large.”
