The Parker Home.

I have been a Catholic my whole life, which means I have seen a ton of mediocre religious films. Ones that, instead of commenting on any of the multifaceted issues that face Catholicism, give a diluted message of "God is good," without any further insight. They exist purely to reinforce one's beliefs, and as both a Catholic and a filmmaker, I hate them. For this reason, I created "The Parker Home." This script is not meant to fill the audience with happy emotions or serve as an echo chamber for a specific belief; it is sad, tragic, and most importantly, realistic. The narrative conflict is a reflection of Catholicism's most difficult issues, and the characters present perspectives that, while different, are both genuine and worth empathizing with. I don't want "The Parker Home" to be just for Catholics or just for any specific audience; I want it to be worth anyone's time. I hope that a Catholic will watch it and understand the atheist character, and I hope an atheist will watch it and understand the Catholic character. This work, and all films, should give us the opportunity to better understand one another as humans.
