NEW YORK\u00a0(ChurchMilitant.com<\/a>) –\u00a0An award-winning Jewish filmmaker is to release a documentary film aimed at offering LGBTQ+ Catholics with homosexual iconography of Jesus.<\/p>\n

Director Yuval David, a Jew “married” to his Catholic “husband,” says he noticed the absence of LGBTQ+ portrayals of Jesus in Catholicism \u2014 a faith where icons play a significant part.<\/p>\n

The lack of visual representation of a “gay Jesus” led David\u00a0to create a feature-length movie exploring the challenges and aspirations of LGBTQ+ Catholics.<\/p>\n

The film “Wonderfully Made” will be released in early 2021 and features interviews with\u00a0homosexualist<\/a>\u00a0Jesuit Fr. James Martin and\u00a0openly gay<\/a>\u00a0priest Fr. Bryan Massingale.<\/p>\n

“I myself am Jewish but my husband is Catholic, and he expressed to me feelings of there not necessarily being a place for him in the same way as there was a place for straight people,” David\u00a0told<\/a>\u00a0AMNY<\/a>\u00a0news.<\/p>\n

David’s\u00a0conversations with his “husband” Mark McDermott and “a photo art project” he was working on helped the filmmaker to realize that the missing “gay Jesus” iconography and similar forms of “rejection was a significant gap in the fullness of his life.”<\/p>\n

“Recognition of this rejection through my photo art project organically turned into the idea of reimagining Jesus as a member of or supporter of the LGBTQ+ community,” David\u00a0told the New York newspaper.<\/p>\n

I think if Jesus were here today, in the flesh, on earth, he would be going first to LGBT people.<\/i>Tweet<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n

“I think the beauty of art is when you create something, you’re not just creating it for yourself, you’re creating it for somebody else. And then they kind of take ownership of that. They experience the art,” the filmmaker explained.<\/p>\n

Even though McDermott\u00a0identifies<\/a>\u00a0as Catholic, he and David are both members of\u00a0Congregation Beit Simchat Torah\u00a0in New York\u00a0and of\u00a0Beit Chayim Chadashim\u00a0in Los Angles\u00a0\u2014\u00a0both well-established LGBT synagogues.<\/p>\n
