In God's Country
Watch TrailerIn God's Country is a modern day story of slavery. Young women ignored by the police and protected by "freedom of religion" are trapped in polygamous communities scattered throughout North America. Judith Joseph is one of them. Despite being raised under the watchful eyes of "God's Keepers" and knowing no other life, Judith realises she cannot watch her sixteen year old daughter succumb to the same fate she was born into. Desperate, with no other resources and no connections, Judith sets her house on fire and escapes with her five children. Alone, on the "outside", Judith is ill equipped to handle the challenges facing her, but she's determined to build a life.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take
The film constructs a tense drama, relying on a chronicle-like authenticity to explore the psychology of survival under absolute control. It builds its narrative through restrained cinematography that highlights the fragility of newfound freedom.
What lingers after the credits is a profound respect for resilience in the face of systemic indifference. This is a difficult but vital viewing experience about the cost of liberty. — MovieFinder Editorial
