Deadly Obsession
Pastor/Full Gospel Apostolic House of the Lord Jesus
They call it religion. It's been branded a cult. The lethal handling of serpents. In the name of God. Immolation, speaking in tongues, ecstasy, self injury and the dangerous snakes. The bible belt of the very South. Backyard churches. In West Virginia, Kentucky and Tennessee. Appalachia.
American Jesus
Self - Pastor Full Gospel Apostolic House of the Lord Jesus
AMERICAN JESUS ​​es una exploración del cristianismo en todas las facciones de la vida estadounidense, desde la línea de pan hasta el estudio de yoga, desde las humildes iglesias de manipuladores de serpientes hasta las mega iglesias en las ex-urbs. Cowboys cristianos, ciclistas y músicos, comediantes, surfistas y luchadores en jaula, todos lo hacen por Cristo. Aram Garriga viaja desde su Barcelona natal a los Estados Unidos políticamente divididos para narrar la relación a veces extraña entre la fe, el materialismo, la política y las pasiones personales en este cuadro singularmente estadounidense.
