Videos/Movies about fundies?

Since I'm not sure I have the guts to take them to an IFB church, can anyone recommend a good video or movie about QF/patriarchy that I can show to my 11-16-year-old UU youth Sunday School kids?

"Saved" is good, it's a comedy about Fundies tennagers. Released around 2005.

I don't know if you only want serious films...If you wanna laugh at them, "Saved" is good.

Saved is great!

I'm drawing a blank in terms of QF/Patriarchy, but what about missionary colonialism? There are lots of films along those lines, some good and some bad (for example, I think you could have an interesting debate about the good the missionaries brought to the Amazon in the film End of the Spear).

Jesus Camp? It is about fundies...but not really about the patriarchy movement.

There is that documentary about purity balls, that seems to have quite a bit of patriarchy in it. I think it is called 'Daddy I Do' and it is available on YouTube.

There's a bunch of good ones-

The Virgin Daughters- http://documentaryheaven.com/the-virgin-daughters/ (about the Purity movement and purity balls. Highlights fundie families)

DEBORAH 13: SERVANT OF GOD- http://documentaryheaven.com/deborah-13-servant-of-god/ (about a fundie girl who goes out into the "real world" to visit her brother in college. Comes from a QF family)

Friends of God- http://documentaryheaven.com/friends-of-god/ (about Evangelicals/fundies and politics)

LOUIS THEROUX ON FUNDAMENTALIST CHRISTIANITY- http://documentaryheaven.com/louis-ther ... istianity/ (follows several different groups of Fundies.)

I'd reco Jesus Camp, but if they're UU kids they've probably all seen it :lol:

Not really documentaries, per say, but these are a clip and 2 seperate parts of an interview I found on Youtube:

Not sure if these have been discussed here before though...

I just watched the Deborah 13 movie (a bit of insonmia here). I work with jr/sr high schoolers and that would probably be a good fit for them.

However I must say...'deborah' is drinking the kool-aid by the gallon.

There was a documentary called "Born Again" that I remember being quite good. I saw it back in 90 or 91, but from what I remember, it would hold true. No homeschooling that I recall (homeschooling wasn't nearly as popular as it now is), but some kids going to a Christian school. I'm not sure when it was made.

I've done a search and I can't find the one I saw. It was pretty good, though, and informative. And, as I recall, fair. There were some parts that make liberals cringe (a woman being counseled by her pastor to give her abusive husband a second chance because he's repented and changed) and some, such as kids going to school, that reminded me of their humanness. I may not remember the name perfectly, either.

I couldn't find Daddy I do on youtube, saw the trailer and really wanted to see it, but nowhere to find online.
