Synopsis
A cynical ex-priest makes a living running a mobile confessional out of a trailer park until an unlikely sinner forces him to confront his faith.
Statement from Filmmaker
It often feels like we live in a world where it’s easy to assume harm and neglect good. After all, the institutions we’d like to have faith in seem to let us down more often than they lift us up. So, where do we put our hope? I'd like to think we can put it in other people. Indulge Me communicates this via a curious character in an unlikely world. For, this time when the priest and the rabbi sit down to chat, they do more than crack jokes. They confide in one another, confess to one another, and ultimately put their faith in one another. Doing this enables them each to see beyond their bleakness and take one more small step forward.
