Jonathan Pageau calls El Tonto Por Cristo “dangerous in the best way possible” and a bold step toward reclaiming culture through art. With Oklahoma’s film industry booming and local parishes bursting at the seams, this one-night-only screening is a rare opportunity to bring the filmmakers to town for a live Q&A, giving the Orthodox and filmmaking communities in Oklahoma a shared space to experience something timely and meaningful in this unique cultural moment.Click below to sponsor, donate, or continue to the contact form to let us know how you're interested in helping.
