Question who “deserves” a place in heaven in this divinely dark comedy. Faith and queerness clash at an all-girls Catholic school in Kentucky, as one senior hurtles to graduation feeling less than blessed. Forced to reconcile her undeniable queerness with the religion that raised her, Sarah Alice Shull asks if these two pieces of a person can grow together… and if they should. An outrageously funny and heartfelt exploration of what we’re taught to believe; featuring Maroon 5, cock rings and the Catholic church. It's like confession without all the guilt!
Content warnings: abortion, LGBTQIA+ trauma, religious trauma, discussions of racism Trigger warning: Sexual abuse by the Catholic Church
