According to award-winning filmmakers Randy Barbato and Fenton Bailey, Tammy Faye Bakker's biggest crime was accept­ance. Unlike her Christian Right contempo­raries, Tammy Faye's religious fold was completely inclusive, welcoming gays and straights, blacks and whites, and the HIV-posi­tive and drug addicted.

Baring the details of her rise and fall with husband Jim Bakker, Tammy shares the untold stories of her personal life with an unfulfilled Jim, her colleagues' unchristian behavior, and the brutal media campaign that surrounded her and her family, ranking right up there with the Princess Di and Monica Lewinsky media blitzes. With all the drama of Dallas (Melrose Place for you younger folks), The Eyes of Tammy Faye is an intriguing and surprising portrait of success, failure, illness, divorce, addiction, redemption, and resilience.

Complemented by RuPaul's narration and interviews with Jim Bakker and other family members, Tammy shines like the star she is. Put aside what you thought you knew about Tammy Faye — there's much more to this boisterous, loving woman than meets the eye.
