1 Vers(us) 1

1 VERS(US) 1 depicts a young woman’s inner monologue as she confronts the intersections of faith, womanhood, and the immigrant experience. In this five-minute short, director Kourtney Jackson confronts a growing disillusionment with her Christian upbringing. Through the lens of her experience going to a religious school and attending service with her family, Jackson portrays a modern struggle for youth to define the meaning of faith, community and identity for themselves in a world so often polarized by fear of difference.
