Synopsis:

A dazzling emotional and intellectual documentary epic spanning four centuries, Seeking Salvation is a celebration of the Black Church and its deep history in Canada. Stunning coverage from inside the nation's most hallowed Black Churches, dynamic editing, and soul-lifting gospel music collide with compelling stories from clerics, historians, poets and musicians to create a rich tapestry of individuals and communities from Nova Scotia to British Columbia. A must-see film starring Tonya Lee Williams (The Young and the Restless), Maurice Dean Wint (Cube), and literary master George Elliott Clarke, Seeking Salvation holds high the victory of spirituality over racism while honoring the legacy of peoples who survived against impossible odds. Run-time: 90 minutes
