"This text is a series of essays, written between 2010-2018, exploring how Latter-day Saint (LDS) theology, culture, and history interacts with thematic, narrative, and aesthetic ideas in film. Some essays will be more personal, others more academic. Some will focus on particular filmmakers or particular genres, while others will be more interested in certain topics revisited throughout the years or certain stories retold by various artists. Other essays will focus on specific theological concepts, doctrinal paradoxes, or cultural tendencies in Mormonism and will aim to explore ways in which film can comment on, contrast with, or compliment those ideas." [From author's preface]
