A Whore in the House of the Lord

A Whore in the House of the Lord is a 16mm color film that navigates the bind women encounter in Christian fundamentalist churches as being both the representative body of the church and the conduit in which Satan's temptation can creep in and corrupt the saints. Inspired by the silent films of the 1920s, the film fuses gothic architecture and design with the rituals of rabid Christian fanaticism popularized in the American South.
