soulMAID
When Moses's seizures begin manifesting as religious visions, he
is compelled to abandon the man of his dreams and prepare for a
bizarre second coming. Ridiculously romantic, hopelessly funy and
unabashedly politically incorrect, soulMaid is a modern day fairy
tale that will both touch and offend your soul. Written and directed
by Jeff Maccubbin, Jeffrey McHale, Dan Mohr and Joe Steiff with
animation by Justin Winslow.
"A politically incorrect modern fairy tale." -Chicago Tribune's RedEye
"Goofy originality... hitting the right blend of sincereity and camp." -Brian Jewell, Edge Boston
"A campy comedy... off-the-wall plot, cute boys and a unique production style." -Newfest, The New York LGBT Film Festival
"Without question... the weirdest film of the festival. Think "I Heart Huckabees" crossed with "Angels in America" with a "South Park" bent." -Mardi Gras Film Festival
