‘Generational Sins’ features expletives and references to child abuse and alcoholism: “We live in an R-rated world, and covering up the darkness won’t bring it into the light,” says executive producer Thurman Mason. An upcoming faith-based film is attempting to go where no previous movie from the genre has ever gone.
Generational Sins — directed by Spencer T. Folmar and written by Folmar, Dax Spanogle, Jason Spanogle, Casey Salviano and Fernando Salviano — is overflowing
with profanity, including multiple uses of “f—,” “sh**,” “bi***,” “di**” and “a**.” It’s a huge departure compared to recent faith-based successes like God’s Not Dead, which took in $60 million in 2014 and contained just one objectionable word: “crap.” Generational Sins is about child abuse, alcoholism and, ultimately, redemption through Jesus Christ, and it could be in the unusual position of being offensive to both Christians and the LGBTQ community, since it also contains the term “faggot.” (GLAAD declined comment for this story.)
