With Flight
to Sinai ( Charlie Vaughn, USA, 2009,
30 min) In this musical, Jack Strong is a
typical teenage boy. His family just moved
to San Francisco from Chagrin Falls, Ohio.
He spends a lot of time with a girl named
Sophie who he knows from church. He also feels
a bit outcast because he is a conservative
Christian living in San Francisco. Then again,
he also feels outcast because he's attracted
to boys. Flight to Sinai follows Jack as he
explores different paths related to his faith
and sexuality. Should he go to be healed at
a summer camp ministry? Should he accept his
sexuality as part of him and find a church
that welcomes him? Whatever Jack decides,
it means giving up part of his life and part
of himself.
