WHAT’S IT ABOUT?

Moses (David) is the impoverished preacher for a small Hebrew Israelite commune in Miami. He is offered money to help save his family from eviction, but little does he know that his sponsor is actually working for FBI agent Kendra Glack (Kendrick), who plans to turn him into a criminal by funding his eccentric revolutionary dreams, so that she can look good in front of her boss (O’Hare)…

IN ONE SENTENCE, WHY SHOULD YOU BE EXCITED?

Christopher Morris, who with his last film Four Lions did the unthinkable and made suicide bombing funny, is back with a satirical stab at the American justice system in a story that’s based on a hundred true ones.
