What happens when Western theology meets the chaotic, cinematic art style of Republican-era China? You get some of the most surreal, beautiful, and downright terrifying religious propaganda ever created.

In this video, we take a deep dive into six stunning visual scenes adapted from real 1920s Chinese Christian posters.
