Father K is an award-winning documentary about Palestinian Lutheran Pastor Khader El- Yateem who decides to run as NYC’s first Arab American elected official. He does what no one in his conservative Brooklyn neighborhood thinks is possible, igniting his marginalized community’s hopes and dreams. In the election's aftermath, an unforeseeable blow threatens the foundation of the movement they started, and the community finds their newfound optimism is tested to its limit. Father K must face the realities of what it takes to build lasting power in a divided America. Father K’s voice emerges as funny, bold, and defiantly hopeful — a bridge-builder in a polarized time.
