A lost psychedelic 16mm film reel blending unsettling animation, mime , and drugged-out voice over, created by IMAGO for the United Church Board for Homeland Ministries. Based on Gabriel Fackre’s 1974 preparatory text for the World Council of Churches’ Nairobi Assembly, the film offers a visual interpretation of “Jesus Christ Frees and Unites,” channeling themes of spiritual liberation and collective awakening through surreal, church-coded countercultural imagery.
