Higher Ground
Vera Farmiga’s directorial debut, HIGHER GROUND, depicts the panorama of a tight-knit religious group thrown off-kilter when certainly one of their very own begins to query her religion. Impressed by screenwriter Carolyn S. Briggs’ memoir This Darkish World, the movie tells the story of a considerate girl’s struggles with perception, love, and belief – in human relationships in addition to in God.
