Higher Ground

Vera Farmiga's directorial debut, HIGHER GROUND, depicts the landscape of a tight-knit spiritual community thrown off-kilter when one of their own begins to question her faith. Inspired by screenwriter Carolyn S. Briggs' memoir This Dark World, the film tells the story of a thoughtful woman's struggles with belief, love, and trust - in human relationships as well as in God. ??Sony Pictures ClassicsAwards: 1 win & 7 nominationsBudget: $2,000,000 (estimated)Worldwide Gross: $1,043,262Soundtrack: Blessed Assurance (Written by Fanny Crosby and Phoebe Knapp)Vera FarmigaVera Farmiga, Joshua Leonard, Dagmara Dominczyk2012-03-01 (United States)tt1562568
