The son of famed evangelical theologian Francis A. Schaeffer (1912-1984), Francis "Frank" Schaeffer left the Presbyterian church and pursued a career in writing and filmmaking. His first original film, Wired to Kill, was released in 1986; he went on to direct several more Hollywood films and has since offered political commentary from the unique point of view of an evangelical-turned-atheist.

Self
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.
