Alexandra Pelosi's "Friends of God" here 8/23

Famed documentarist Alex Pelosi (yep, she's related) has a new film chronicling her visits with the fundamentalists shaping America, and she and it are making a debut in H-Town:

With her unique brand of road-tripping reportage, Alexandra Pelosi embarks on a fast-paced cross-country journey, offering snapshots of a cross-section of evangelical America. Pelosi presents her up-close and personal encounters with some influential members of the evangelical community, from Joel Osteen, the most-watched TV minister in America, to Ted Haggard, who recently stepped down as president of the 30-million strong National Association of Evangelicals following allegations that he had sex with a male prostitute and bought illegal drugs.
