Based on a true story, I Am Michael depicts gay activist Michael Glatze (James Franco), the managing editor of popular queer San Francisco-based XY magazine. He was a proud gay man in a loving relationship with his partner Bennett (Zachary Quinto). After Glatze faces a health scare from severe heart palpitations, he turns to Christianity and renounces his homosexuality, eventually becoming a Christian pastor and marrying Rebekah (Emma Roberts). Director Justin Kelly’s piercing exploration is as compelling and complex as Michael’s transformation.
