Trailer Time: Higher Ground, directed by and starring Vera Farmiga

This Dark World: A Memoir of Salvation Found and Lost
Over the weekend we got a new poster for Vera Farmiga's directorial debut, Higher Ground, and today we're getting a more lengthy trailer than the teaser we've previously seen. Based on Carolyn Briggs' novel, This Dark World, the film follows an awkward young woman's journey of self discovery as she falls in with a Christian fundamentalist society, before ultimately gaining the strength to ask some tough questions of it and of herself. John Hawkes(Winter's Bone), Donna Murphy, Bill Irwin, and Joshua Leonard co-star.



Higher Ground will open in theaters on August 26th, where hopefully it'll show up here in DC.
