Born Again
Buy the Film

Far from the high profile “holy wars” of televangelism, Born Again focuses on five real families in a fundamentalist Baptist Church in Wooster, Massachusetts. The searing backstage portrait captures intertwined personal dramas to reveal how private struggles and family bonds lead to the formulation of political and religious ideals, and ultimately provides an intimate look at the foundation of the “Moral Majority”, the close-knit community church

By showing how the church serves its members’ needs and what it demands of them in return, Born Again offers a remarkably candid exploration of fundamentalism’s appeal. Its utterly unique approach to the subject combines with brilliant observational camerawork to explore a congregation’s beliefs, and the consequences of those beliefs, first hand.
