Elder Jackson

The discipline of being a Mormon Elder has been a story told in a few films some with and some without the sanction of the LDS church. In Elder Jackson young missionary Sid Phoenix in the title role is struggling with great temptation against a female missionary Sister Amelia Clay. All this in that great sin capital of the world Paris.

Although in your daily lives you might come across those white shirted Elders traveling in pairs, female Sisters are rare, but they are there. Women can and do serve as LDS missionaries and both American boy and British girl are assigned to Paris. And supposed to keep their mind on spreading word of the church.

This short film explains the problems these kids do have. They do have hormones indeed. Sincerely acted and shot on a small budget it's a decent enough effort to explain it from their point of view.

I'm starting to think that traveling Elder I met may have had it good after all when he was assigned to Penn Yan, New York.
