PARK CITY, Utah — The Mormon frontman of the Imagine Dragons rock band hopes the Sundance Film Festival documentary that follows his journey to becoming an advocate for LGBT Mormon youth triggers real change by his religion’s leaders and puts an end to what he calls shaming of gay and lesbian kids in the religion.
Singer Dan Reynolds says he and director Don Argott made the film “Believer” to put a face to the faceless and a voice to the voiceless
Reynolds said in an interview this week that he wants leaders from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints to know that opposition to same-sex relationships is damaging the self-worth of gay, lesbian and transgender kids.
The film received a standing ovation at its premiere Sunday in Park City.
