Dave Lindsay is one of the most genuine people you will ever meet and I am honored to call him my friend.  Dave is a film producer and director and has most recently directed the award-winning true-crime documentary, Dog Valley. This important LGBTQ-themed film is about the 1988 kidnapping, torture, rape, and murder of gay college student, Gordon Church. Set in a rural Mormon community in Southern Utah, Dog Valley examines one of the most brutal hate crimes in the United States. It explores the life of the victim and his legacy and delves into the minds of the killers, Michael Archuleta and Lance Wood. It also shows the crimes’ impact on the community and modern-day hate crimes legislation. Dog Valley is currently being distributed by Gravitas Ventures and was released on October 1, 2021.
