| Summary: | Follows Reverend Rob Schenck, anti-abortion activist and fixture on the political far right, who breaks with orthodoxy by questioning whether being pro-gun is consistent with being pro-life. Along the way, Rev. Schenck meets Lucy McBath, the mother of Jordan Davis, an unarmed teenager who was murdered in Florida. McBath, also a Christian, decides to work with Schenck even though she is pro-choice. Armor of Light follows these unlikely allies through their trials of conscience, heartbreak and rejection, as they attempt to make others consider America's gun culture through a moral lens. The film is also a look at our fractured political culture, and an assertion that it is, indeed, possible for people to come together across deep party lines to find common ground. |
