"A potent, provocative story"
—Variety
This Venice Film Festival prizewinner is a gripping investigation of spirituality and charlatanism. Based on a harrowing true story, it follows a desperate mother (Findley) who, failed by the state, turns to a storefront church faith healer (Harewood) in hopes of curing her troubled son (Chandler). Boasting a trio of tour-de-force performances, Free In Deed approaches its provocative subject with a complex moral ambiguity.
