I watched the movie Them That Follows with Olivia Coleman..it's a movie about a Pentecostal community in the U.S. in the Appalachians who follow very strict, literal interpretation of the Bible and impose their flawed beliefs onto others, causing grave consequences. This movie exposes not only the patriarchy that underlie the father and a young woman's husband-to-be treatment towards the main character but also the irrationality that has washed over the village members. This movie shows that life is not black and white but there is so much gray and IT'S HOW WE respond to the gray and the complexities of life that determine our lives and who we are and our humanity.
