Fish Can't Fly Are people born gay?  Can gay people be cured?  Does religion belong to just a few?  While the whole concept of changing ones' sexual orientation may be viewed with a high level of skepticism, ridicule and even humor by some, these are the stories of those who tried.  Taking a secular point of view, FISH CAN'T FLY explores the lives of Gay men and women of faith as they recall their journeys to put their sexuality and spirituality in harmony.  83 minutes
