Mississippi Queen, a new documentary, addresses the issue of homosexuality from a religious analysis. This ground breaking film provides both sides of the debate and ultimately deals with the question of who’s right or wrong.
When Shakespeare wrote his famous play Hamlet, the quote “to be or not to be, that is the question,” became the hallmark during the 18th century. Similarly, the 21st century question is homosexuality: to be or not to be, is it a choice has become as contentious as Hamlet’s revenge. The new documentary, Mississippi Queen addresses this very issue and ultimately deals with the question of who’s right or wrong. Producer and filmmaker, Paige William, is the voice behind this ground-breaking film. I had an opportunity to speak with Paige before she and her crew began shooting, and she candidly shared her unique relationship with her parents, who are leaders of the only ex-gay ministry in Mississippi, the purpose of the documentary, and why this story is so important.
