Synopsis

Leaving Jesus

A group of former Christians Fundamentalists come together during a retreat in San Francisco to deal with what they’ve gone through, both as active in a restrictive congregation but also as defectors of a congregation that gave them meaning in life.

Wonders of the Sea

The ocean depths are explored with the aid of a submarine chamber of Williamson's invention and a few hardy souls. The construction of the device is examined; but most of the footage is given to plant and animal life, a girl swimming among the coral growths, and two divers who encounter a moray and an octopus.
