2007 - The
Return of Elder Pingree - 52' |
| |
|
Documentary-in-progress
that follows lapsed Mormon Geoff Pingree as he retraces the steps he took
25 years ago in Guatemala as devout missionary 'Elder Pingree.' Combining
archival material and contemporary footage, the film pairs Elder Pingree's
earlier, single-minded journey with Geoff Pingree's ambivalent return
to Guatemala in 2006 as he seeks to find the Guatemalans who once trusted
him with their religious faith, attempts to understand the unsettling
political conditions of which he was ignorant as a regimented missionary,
and grapples with the basic human dilemma of how one can and ought to
do good in the world.
Produced, directed, and written by Geoff Pingree, with financial support
from The Writers' Bloc and from The Documentary Production Initiative
at Oberlin College
