First Sunday (2021)

Directed by Rodney Lucas

“A devotional portrait of the first post-quarantine service in America’s oldest Black church”

Documentary · 5m

In this film, Pastor George of First African Baptist Church lends us his wisdom and experience of leading a congregation through the most turbulent year in living history. “I admired everything about that man, from his shoes to how he kissed my grandmother's hand,” says Lucas. “When Covid first hit, the cloud of isolation, ironically, drove me to reconnect with a place where Black folks have always found solace and care; our churches.”
