In an unprecedented attempt to heal centuries of racism and antisemitism, and combat the rising racial and ethnic tension in their Brooklyn communities, activist Rabbi Rachel Timoner teams up with Baptist Reverend Robert Waterman to unite their congregations. As their faith is put to the test, both congregations struggle to not let their differences drive them apart. ALL GOD'S CHILDREN follows their journey, offering a powerful blueprint for how other communities might bridge divides and foster true unity. This compelling narrative lays the foundation for an impact campaign that could ignite transformative change far beyond Brooklyn.

Lisa Kennedy Variety 11/25/2024
All God’s Children follows this Jewish woman and this Black man as they try to unify their congregations in worship -- it does not go smoothy -- which makes this straightforward film so consequential and instructive. Go to Full Review Stephen Silver Broad Street Review Nov 21
There are real and undeniable tensions, which the film, to its credit, doesn’t sugarcoat at all. Go to Full Review Peter Keough Arts Fuse Nov 3
Timoner combines candid observations with dynamic montages and a compelling soundtrack to compress complex issues, decades of civil rights history, and the traumatic events of several years into a cogent appeal for understanding and action. Go to Full Review John Stark Mac the Movie Guy Sep 26
75/100
In an effort to ask the tough questions, All God’s Children explores how fundamentally differences we are accustomed to are woven in religious texts, and only through understanding that can we understand each other. Go to Full Review Olivia Haynie The Forward 12/12/2024
The film could have painted a simpler picture of intercultural unity. [But it] refuses to shy away from how difficult and emotional the work can be, which is what makes the film so powerful. Go to Full Review Damon Wise Deadline Hollywood Daily 11/25/2024
All God’s Children is unusual in that, although it, too, is very much in and about the present moment, it’s a film that’s also in dialogue -- thoughtfully, and powerfully -- with the past. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
