Thông tin về bộ phim này

As devout Jehovah's Witnesses, sisters Alex and Luisa and their mother, Ivanna, are united in The Truth. Alex looks up to her confident older sister, while striving to follow in Ivanna's footsteps as a ‘good Witness'. But when Luisa starts to question the advice of the Elders, she makes a life-altering transgression that threatens to expel her from the congregation. Unless Ivanna and Alex can persuade her to return, they must shun her completely. This challenge becomes more painful when their family is faced with another heartbreaking test of faith.
Written and directed by Daniel Kokotajlo, a former Jehovah’s Witness, Apostasy is a remarkable debut film, providing rare authenticity and insight into faith, family, duty and love.

Some people don't have what it takes to run a race to the finish and it's ok because no body is being forced to become or remain one of Jehovah's Witnesses. Every one making the decision goes through a lengthy process before babtism, perhaps they slept through the questions? No need to spend your life all disgruntled making movies and speaking out against kind people....especially if this life is all you have left. Go out and live it!

This movie is mainly about their practices of disfellowship. The movie depict fairly accurate chain of events but it is showing just a scratch of the surface what that they are capable of doing. And I think the ending is missing something.

For those giving a 1 star You clearly are one of jehovah's witnesses and as such, you have no business watching this movie. If you do, why not tell everyone in the congregation and see how that goes with the elders. Second, unless you have been shunned, then you can't speak on this. This movie speaks on both sides as it should. It's easy for someone to defend something for which they can't emphantize with.
