God’s A Drag Synopsis: God’s A Drag explores the art of drag performance as an expression of spiritual ritual. A Latinx, genderqueer pastor starts a holy queer hour at their church in suburban Lower-Mainland and must deal with the backlash. With guidance from two queer saints — and with a sprinkle of drag as prayerful worship — this story celebrates what it is to be unapologetically queer and holy.
