In continuing to celebrate #PrideMonth, Hell's Color Kitchen would like to honor Award-Winning Director Daniel Karslake for his film, "For They Know Not What They Do"! Hell's Color Kitchen had the pleasure of collaborating with Mr. Karslake & his team on the Color Grading & Sound Mixing of this great documentary that had its' World Premiere at The Tribeca Film Festival in 2019, was released in June 2020 by First Run Features in Virtual Cinemas throughout the United States, and continues to screen throughout the world!

"For They Know Not What They Do" is a follow-up to Mr. Karslake’s "For The Bible Tells Me So" which premiered at the 2007 Sundance Film Festival, and was short-listed for an Academy Award. This powerful examination of the intersection of religion, sexual orientation, and gender identity offers much-needed healing, clarity, and understanding.

The film also featured Senator Sarah McBride who won her race in Delaware to become the first transgender state senator in America in November 2020!
