So Help Me God
In this short film from Brooklyn, a Christian musician who plays modest clubs finds himself entangled in a romantic relationship that has spun out of control. He knows he has a problem with carnal desire—he can't control it—but now things have gone too far. He screwed up big, and even when trying to implement the right fix, he only digs a deeper and deeper hole.

Sophia Conger thrives on moral ambiguity and loves to give her audience a jolt.
So Help Me God will make some people uncomfortable. It may enlighten, but it does not preach. The musician and his lover are in a hot mess, and no Hand of God will sweep out of the clouds to save either. Instead, they have to sort through their situation, and the foundation the musician is drawing from to make that happen is currently failing him.
