Backsliders

About This Movie

So, 'Backsliders' is this quirky blend of comedy and introspection that dives into the struggle of belief. You've got Micah and Keylee, who both come from these very distinct religious backgrounds—one a cult and the other a megachurch. The film plays with this idea of faith, questioning everything in a really raw, honest way. The pacing feels almost like a conversation, meandering through their thoughts and experiences. The practical effects aren’t flashy but serve the narrative well. Their performances are genuine, making you feel the weight of their confusion and humor alike. It’s a unique take on belief systems that feels personal yet relatable. Kind of a wild ride that blurs the lines of documentary and narrative storytelling.

Interesting exploration of personal belief systems. · Unique narrative style combining documentary elements. · Great performances that embody vulnerability and humor.
