Faith of Our Fathers, a film by Hamilton Sterling

About This Movie

Faith of Our Fathers is this quirky yet biting commentary on America’s socio-political landscape during the Gulf War, directed by Hamilton Sterling. The film carries this surreal vibe, weaving dark humor throughout, especially with the interactions between a demented capitalist and a derelict priest. The pacing can feel erratic, but it fits the chaotic themes at play. There's a rawness to the performances, making each character feel painfully real in their flawed humanity—particularly the naïve young man caught in their web. It’s like a snapshot of the post-Reagan era, reflecting the absurdities of trickle-down economics with an unsettling charm.

Not widely talked about, but worth a look.Features strong performances that ground its absurdity.Interesting take on capitalism and faith.
