God In The Box DIrector, Nathan Lang

I had a recent encounter with a delivery man.  As often happens, he asked about God In The Box.  He seemed fascinated by the subject and very curious but suspicious.  He asked me to tell him something I learned from The Box.  I said how fascinating it was that seemingly different people of different faiths, often have a lot in common.

He so firmly took issue with this idea that he immediately began a lengthy monologue about our differences and further singled-out “those people,” (members of a faith not shared by him), essentially as entirely evil.  It was a little shocking, and a lot nauseating.

I tried to invite him to see the film and see what I saw from diverse people all over the country, through The Box.  But he was adamant.   It was eerie and sad.

While climbing back into his truck he asked, “What’s the name of your movie again?”  I said, “God In The Box.”  Maybe he’ll sign up for the film, and a little kernel of tolerance will grow inside him.  Where are we failing in our society, that a delivery man revels in his bigotry so much that he openly shares it with a customer?

HOPE TO SEE YOU THERE!

It went great!  The audience loved it and joined in a very engaging post-film Q&A with director/producer, Nathan Lang and producer, Troy Browder.  Jonathan Jossell co-festival director moderated.  When we asked the audience how many people would have gone in The Box, almost everyone said they would — and still want the chance!

Thank you to Gretchen McCourt, ArcLight Documentary Film Festival Director!  So nice to meet you and your husband, and hear so many encouraging things about the film.  I hope we’ll stay in touch!

Thank you to Rhadi Taylor, of the Sundance Institute, and your husband, for your compliments, thoughtful comments and ideas on distribution! I also hope we’ll stay in touch.

With thanks and regards, -Nathan Lang, director, GOD IN THE BOX
