Review of Higher Ground (2011) by Discernment — 16 Sep 2011
This is a really good movie. Farmiga's acting and her direction provides the visual representation of the isolation one feels when one begins to doubt the beliefs of the community. Her character experiences the soft sexism of a traditional society that holds prescribed roles for women and consequently and inadvertently discourages her personal development.
The community is fundamentalist Christian, but anyone who has struggled with a belief in anything can relate to this character's alienation.
