Family dramas with strong religious overtones are not normally my thing. The initial premise is really just a catalyst for all that follows, both new crises and ones that have been brewing for years. The central characters are flawed, complex, realistic and sympathetic. What really surprised me was how visually beautiful the film is. The choices of tones and lighting often reminded me a little of the last couple of seasons of Foyle's War. The cinematography and direction complemented it perfectly. A really high quality film in every sense. (I don't give 10s, knowing how IMdB's algorithms work, but I really can't think of anything wrong with this film).
