The Synopsis

George, an Atlanta auto mechanic and self-appointed “soldier of Christ,” has embarked on a tortured quest to investigate lifestyles he regards as rejected by God. On the street, in clubs, and in private homes, his interviews with a wide range of people reveal their struggles to accept themselves and in so doing, begin to illuminate for George his own history and demons. As the interviews delve into the peoples’ pasts, George’s defenses against childhood memories begin to erode. And as his personality structure deteriorates, so do his personal relationships, even as his history of child abuse begins to emerge into consciousness. This drama of disintegration progresses through George’s failure to forge a lasting relationship and concludes with his shattering understanding that he has rejected himself.

Reality cinema

I worked in the reality documentary film "You're Rejected". The film maker Parthiban Shanmugam is wonderful and kind man. I was amused by the main character George who is a self appointed "Soldier of Christ". In my opinion George need sincere medical assistance. Hope he can be treated. Most of the time I got annoyed by his behaviour but Parthiban was not. When I asked how he could tolerate this, his answer was just simple smile. When the film was done I understood that simple smile............

I had great exposure and experience while I was working in this film. I would like to share some of my thoughts about the people who featured in this film in my next postings.....
