Sasha Hadden (US, 2014, 84 min) Clad in a bullet-proof vest, for his protection, Bishop Gene Robinson was consecrated as the world's first openly gay bishop. He was the only bishop not invited to the 2008 Lambeth Conference of Bishops, and the only bishop Barack Obama selected to deliver the invocation at the inaugural weekend of his presidential election.In the face of a changing government, in Australia—as the Australian politicians struggle with God and the concept of same sex marriage—Bishop Gene Robinson arrives with the unequivocal message that it's going to take religious people to undo the harm that religious people have done.
