Plot

As devout Jehovah's Witnesses, sisters Alex and Luisa and their mother, Ivanna, are united in The Truth. Alex has her older sister in the spotlight, as she strives to follow in Ivanna's footsteps as a 'good witness'. But it will be when Luisa begins to question the council when a transgression occurs that will alter her life and threaten to expel her from the congregation. If Ivanna and Alex can not convince her to return, they will have to avoid it altogether; a challenge that becomes more painful when the faith of his family faces another harrowing test. 'Apostasy', written and directed by Daniel Kokotajlo, a former Jehovah's Witness, provides an extraordinary opportunity to deepen the complex nature of faith, family, duty and love.
