True Believer

Documentary Short, 2019

Director & Producer (with Sarah Colt)


Alarmed by the evangelical movement’s embrace of Trump, Robb Ryerse, a progressive evangelical and lifelong Republican, is called to step away from the pulpit and into the public square in order to inject love, and what he feels to be true Christian values, into the battlefield of American politics. True Believer is a spark of non-partisan idealism in a time of political rancor, illuminating the barriers that prevent average Americans from running for office.
