A confrontation between religious Christian fundamentalists and marchers during the 1993 Gay & Lesbian march on Washington D.C. - Shouts, curses, anger and hate. A narrator asks a hypothetical question: "If you had the power to kill, anyone you wanted, just by thinking about it - would you be able to use it, and watch them die, because of your will?" This question is asked of all three parties involved, the religious fundamentalist, the gay people - and the viewer, watching both antagonists square off. A provocative suggestion and a disturbing question of mind over matter.
