In this episode of the Hard Faith Podcast, host Spencer Folmar sits down with award-winning director Brad Alexander to discuss his documentary The Threshing Floor. The film, which received both the top award and the audience award at the Hard Faith Film Festival, is described as an evangelism story disguised as an addiction film. Brad shares how he was inspired to tell the story of his friend, who overcame heroin addiction, and how the film evolved from a short project into a full-length feature. The documentary is not only a testimony of personal transformation but also a tool to reach those struggling with addiction, showing them that redemption and recovery are possible through faith.
Brad also delves into the challenges of making gritty, faith-based films and the tension between the church’s response to addiction and the real struggles people face. He emphasizes the need for the church to move beyond shame and offer compassion and understanding. The conversation explores the difficult yet rewarding journey of independent filmmaking, particularly within the faith-based genre, and highlights the impact The Threshing Floor is having by opening up meaningful conversations about addiction, faith, and redemption. The episode offers deep insights into Brad’s passion for storytelling that is both raw and redemptive, and it encourages filmmakers to tell stories that resonate with real-life struggles, no matter how messy they may seem.
