December 11, 2021 @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm
“How far will we go to preserve our beliefs?”
Talkback immediately following
Directed by Arlene Barnard
Jordan’s mission to infiltrate and report on an apocalyptic religious community has ended in disaster. Questions from an unseen interrogator trigger and inform Jordan’s memories of her time undercover and force her to decide whether the beliefs that guided her mission are any less dangerous than the beliefs of those in the group. How do we become entrenched in the beliefs we hold and what, if anything, can get us to walk away when our beliefs lead to chaos and destruction?
