Overview

Two journalists set out to document their friend’s journey to reunite with his estranged sister. They track her to an undisclosed location where they are welcomed into the remote world of “Eden Parish,” a self-sustained rural utopia composed of nearly two hundred members and overseen by a mysterious leader known only as “Father.” It quickly becomes evident to the newcomers that this paradise may not be as it seems. Eden Parish harbors a twisted secret. What started as just another documentary shoot soon becomes a fight for survival.

Viewing Notes

My top movie of the festival, just barely edging out The Babadook. Ti West and AJ Bowen were on hand to do a Q&A after, and Joe Dante attended the screening, which was kind of fun.
