A Fiery Priest Takes on the Death Penalty in a New Short Doc From Rolling Stone Films
Director Joel Fendelman and producer James Chase Sanchez discuss their doc on Jeff Hood, The Spiritual Advisor, out now from Rolling Stone and Documentary+

What does it mean to kill somebody? And what if you had to watch it over and over and over again?
Our new short film, THE SPIRITUAL ADVISOR, is now live on Rolling Stone's website & YouTube page and on the Documentary+ streaming service.
This story is so important to Joel Fendelman and me. I would say I hope you enjoy it, but enjoy isn't the right word.
Rather, I hope it gives you insight and shows there are still people doing good work in this world. We need that.

The world premiere of THE SPIRITUAL ADVISOR at DOC NYC was this weekend, and we had 2 sold out screenings!
After the first, an elderly woman turned around and said, "I'm pretty conservative, but you changed my mind about the death penalty...but not for that Luigi Magione."
