Seattle International Film Festival 2025: Film #33
Ah, rather disappointing after what the trailer seemed to promise. A little uncomfortable that the audience was tittering when the producer and director were in the room as well. (Not too much of a complaint, but the soundtrack was something of a "we've got Arvo Pärt at home" affair.)
Synopsis: Rakel is a strict Christian believer living in the far north of 1930s Sweden. When her husband forms a sectarian movement, with directions straight from God, she has no choice but to join the increasingly explicit cult.
