Seattle's True Independent Film Festival 2008

John Sterback is a member of the most politically incorrect subculture in America. He's a self-described 'ex-gay,' someone who claims to have changed their sexual orientation from gay to straight. Richard Cohen is John's inspiration and represents the public face of the 'ex-gay' movement while hiding his own controversial past. Chasing the Devil uncovers the truth behind the claims of reparative therapists who attack gay identity as nothing more than a developmental disorder that can be fixed with a healthy dose of therapy and prayer. Joannne Highley and Peterson Toscano take viewers deeper inside the world of ex-gay ministries with their journeys inside New York City's LIFE Ministry, where demons are believed to cause homosexuality, and exorcisms are the perferred form of treatment.
