Children of God
Women dishonoring their bodies with
women and men with men. It is not
convenient. It's against God. God is
against it and I am against it.
Why they call you Purple?
Because my heart is so black
it's purple.
Charming.
What?
I can't deal with this.
God was very successful in legislating
morality when he decreed the ten
commandments, which is the basis of
law and order in every civilized
society. Despite it's claim, the
homosexual community is seeking to
legislate immorality. The real issue
is - what is the government's position
on the homosexual agenda that seeks to
legitimize homosexuality in our
traditional Bahamian society.
Slow.
Bye.
I'm leaving you.
The Bahamas says No! We say... No!
We've been sitting around for too long
while these sissies try to take over
this country. They are everywhere
these days. Even in government. But
we're takin' them out and I will slay
every one of those demons with the
mighty blood of Christ.
This is what God's plan is -
man and wife.
Meet me in my office.
You are failing.
We are going to take your scholarship.
Why? My technique is better than
I'm not going to dispute that. It's
what got you in here.
But technique without emotion is
absolutely nothing.
Painting is like Dancing, the best
dancers don't go on "skill" they go on
feeling, and I see no feeling there.
Why do you paint?
It's my life.
There you go.
Go ahead.
What is this?
Your salvation. I have a house in
Eleuthera - you're welcome to stay
there. I want you to go, escape Nassau
for a while, reconnect with your
voice. It will help a great deal with
your work. It has with mine.
I can't go...
I'll be too busy.
How will I get there?
I don't know Jonny. Figure it out.
You better have something
for semester review.
You going to practice
by any chance bro?
Sh*t... I am heading to the airport.
Romeo, you haven't been to practice in
a while... The guys getting
frustrated. We like you, you know, but
I gotta give your spot to someone
else. Reynolds from Nassau coming next
week man.
It's just not a good time man... I'm
headed over to Nassau for just the
day... taking the short flight. It's
my grammie's eightieth.
Mojo. Look at me man... I'll do it.
It's the reason why I here right?
Cool man.
Cool man... Help me with this bike.
You're wrong. I'm a Christian woman.
Do it again.
We're not wrong. I wish we were.
I checked it... twice.
You need to have your husband in here
so we can test him as well, as well
as, well I'm sorry to say this, anyone
you may have been intimate with.
You know us. There is no way that
either Ralph or I
have a venereal disease.
This is treatable. I've written a
prescription. Take the drugs, and in a
few weeks, the whole thing goes away.
I'm going to be alright. I don't need
it. All I need is prayer.
I just need to stay prayed up.
I'm a believer in prayer too Lena, but
if you don't take these drugs,
It's going to get worse, and there's
You need to bring your husband in
here. Please, take this prescription.
Fag alert, Fag alert...
Gay boy ray on the scene!
What's going on?
Look at him looking at you.
Does he like you!
F*** you, not me. Like who.
He like you!
Hold on. Batty Man,
you can't pass through here,
you gotta go the next way.
Sissy boy, you ain't listening to me,
GO AROUND my boy.
Know what?
Come around here again and we will
carve you like a pig. Believe that.
You've been whoring around.
Ralph?
I bet that crabby been
jumping all over Nassau.
Excuse me?
Do you really think that I gave it to
you. Come on now.
Lena let's get serious. I'm in this
office all day.
That's what I'm saying...
You don't say anything... you submit.
Slut.
How can you say that! I'm the
mother of your child.
Who says that is even true?
I bet that it is someone else's.
Ralph just tell me...
Who buys the house you live in,
who buys your clothes,
who buys these panties.
Everything you have and ever will have
is because of me. And you have the
nerve to come in here and accuse me of
some sh*t.
Take your hands off of me.
It's a happy birthday! It's a happy
birthday! It's a happy birthday!
Happy Birthday Grammy.
So glad you're here.
When you gonna let me take my dress
out of the box for your wedding.
We trying to figure it out granny,
it takes time.
It don't take all that time. I had
three children when I was your age.
Different times I guess.
The times ain't all that different.
Romeo you got any candy?
I see Romeo is here.
Yes, such a handsome guy.
Yeah... but you just got to tame him
down a bit. Get him back in Nassau.
Make him comb his nappy hair.
C'mon.
Young people by themselves usually
turn to drugs.
I'm serious. Carmen's daughter, she
was in Exuma for a while, she got
herself mixed up in drugs... she
nearly lost her mind.
Not my son.
Then why is he never here?
Hey Jonny!
What's Happened!
Jonny open up! Open the door boy,
what's wrong with you?
Jonny... Jonny open this door!
Go away daddy.
A group of anti-gay preachers say they
will demonstrate in downtown Nassau on
Easter Monday when a suspected lesbian
cruise ship visits a nearby cay.
Am I going to hell?
Why?
Because of today. Aunt Millie says
I am a big mistake.
God makes no mistakes. You are a
boy... always will be...
The devil is messing with your mind.
But she says I'm just like daddy.
Nothing wrong with that.
Your Dad is a good man.
What did I tell you about your hand?
You don't want to go to hell. Do you?
No m'am.
I just want to say that it is a shame
that people don't accept other people
for who they are. They don't have to
sexuality. I am a human being like
everyone else.
but it's modified.
Since you like to do landscape,
I want you to do the ultimate
landscape. I want you to make your
way all the way down to lighthouse
point. The southernmost tip of the
island, very difficult to get to and
paint what you see... exactly what you
see and bring it back.
Why there?
Someone told me that a journey brings
us face to face with ourselves and
maybe then I can see you in your
painting.
Hey Romeo.
Hey Lena. How you doing? I didn't know
you were coming to Eleuthera.
Yeah, church business.
Couldn't get a flight.
Same here.
He's getting big.
Yes, too fast. Ralph and I can't
believe how fast he's growing.
How is he? Good?
Wonderful. He may join later.
I better get some sleep.
I'm tired. Too early.
Daybreak.
Ralph, why didn't you come
home last night?
I am on the mailboat to Eleuthera and
if you care anything about this
relationship you will find
your way here. Bye.
- Move man!
- I'm sorry man!
You can't drive eh? Move your
f***ing car out the road.
I'm sorry.
I can't move this.
I can see that.
You need some help?
Please.
change seats.
