In Good Faith

2025 · 117 min Drama
6.5 / 10 · TMDB

Anna, a young archivist from Berlin, discovers a hidden diary within the ruins of a deconsecrated church. Its pages detail the rise and fall of a radical religious commune in 1970s East Germany, a group known only as 'Gotteskinder'. As she pieces together their story, a disturbing connection to her own family's silence begins to emerge. This 2025 drama meticulously dissects the anatomy of belief, the seduction of absolute truth, and the ghosts of collective trauma. The narrative unfolds as a dual timeline investigation, blurring the lines between historical reckoning and personal exorcism.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The director employs a stark, archival visual grammar for the commune sequences, contrasting with the muted, anxious color palette of the present-day investigation. Scenes are often framed like portraits, trapping characters within the composition.

Anyone ready for a slow-burn psychological excavation will find the film's power in its lingering questions, not its answers. What lingers after the credits is a profound unease about the stories we inherit and the identities built upon them. — MovieFinder Editorial
