Believer
Believer (2018): This is an evocative documentary that shines a light on the intersection of 2SLGBTQIA+ identity and faith within the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church). Through the perspective of Dan Reynolds, lead singer of the pop rock band Imagine Dragons, the film explores his personal journey with his faith and his initiative to bridge gaps between the church and the LGBTQ community.
Central to this exploration is Reynolds’s effort to organize the LOVELOUD Festival in Orem, Utah, which aims to foster acceptance and support for 2SLGBTQIA+ youth in the area. The documentary poignantly captures the challenges and triumphs of striving for inclusivity and understanding within religious communities.
