Our Review

This is a great script that reflects generally on discordant attitudes toward homosexuality in every religion and the stigma faced by LGBT individuals in faith based institutions such as the catholic church.

The script has genuine characters that are well written. Both James as well as the Father struggle with the situation they are in and the faith that holds them. Confession portrays the story of a homosexual men and their faith wanting to change them. A well written dark comedy about giving in to what is right and not blindly following outdated stigmas.
