Desperate to become a priest in the Catholic Church, Alejandra Batista turns to Thomas Reilly, a successful lawyer who files suit against the Archdiocese of New Orleans for sex discrimination without justifiable cause. As the trial unfolds, an extremist concocts a plot to stop the heresy against the church by attacking Alejandra and threatening to kill her if she doesn’t back off. The films stars Aaron Tveit, Edy Ganem, Lou Diamond Phillips, Greg Alan Williams and Yohance Myles.
Founded in 2009, the Bronze Lens Theatre Festival (http://www.bronzelens.com)has a two-fold mission: to promote Atlanta as the new film mecca for people of color; and to showcase films and provide networking opportunities that will develop the next generation of filmmakers.
