    1946: The Mistranslation that Shifted Culture

    Directed by Sharon “Rocky” Roggio
    USA/Canada | 92 minutes | Queer Cinema

Film Festival 2023

The word “homosexual” did not appear in the Bible until 1946. Scholars, linguists, theologians and others have concluded it was a mistranslation, one that has had deadly consequences for the LGBTQ community. Sight unseen, this revelatory film has already been fiercely attacked by Christian conservatives.
