Did not have universal appeal.
I read through a couple of posts and thought it might be appropriate to state the view of other people.
I took a film class from a local college in UT and watched this film. Both were by choice, the film and the class, but the teacher, who also helped produce this film, wanted constructive feedback.
That being said, during the course a term used to describe a film that most people would find attraction to was universal appeal. This film did not posses this attribute. In fact, I found it less than average due to the religious content. Personally, it would be a better story without the overtones.
Living in UT and not being part of the dominating religious party has proved to be rather challenging. Because I don't belong to this denomination, or any for that matter, I find the pornography of images relating to this religion overwhelming.
This religion needs to know not everyone is accepting of this religion.
My two cents.
