Born Again: Life in a Fundamentalist Baptist Church

A documentary which takes a dispassionate look at the "born again Christian" phenomenon, by examining the power source of the fundamentalist movement: the small, tightly knit community church. The program looks at an independent Baptist church outside Worcester, Massachusetts--the Shawmut Valley Baptist Church--and shows the impact of the fundamentalist religion on the lives of several members of the congregation.
