‘God & Country’ Documentary Exposes Christian Nationalism’s Threat to Democracy
The film, produced by Rob Reiner and directed by Dan Partland, delves into the political movement’s rise and its impact on U.S. society.
- ‘God & Country’ begins and ends with footage from the Jan. 6, 2021 insurrection, highlighting Christian Nationalism's role.
- The documentary argues that Christian Nationalism is a political movement aiming to reshape America according to its beliefs.
- Key figures in the film, including deeply religious Christians, express concern over the movement’s distortion of religion and history.
- The film traces the movement’s origins back to the Brown v. Board of Education ruling, not Roe v. Wade as commonly thought.
- ‘God & Country’ offers no clear solution to counter the movement but presents voices of hope and inclusivity for the future.
