Rebecca Holden and Richard Rossi in Canaan Land (2020)

'Canaan Land" is a love story between a charismatic con man preacher, Brother Billy Gantry, who falls in love with Sister Sara Sunday, a sincere Christian. She seeks to redeem Brother Billy, who manipulates the flock with fake miracles, including a stunt with gold dust and feathers he claims are from angels. The film is an unapologetic look at modern religion and televangelism based on the director's personal experiences as a former faith healing evangelist.

Wissenswertes
Pope Francis praised filmmaker Richard Rossi for taking a stand against fraudulent evangelists. "Richard Rossi is standing for good and against evil," Pope Francis said. "He is a voice for the poor who have been taken advantage of by those misrepresenting Christ in a culture of greed. He contrasts the love of God with those who teach blessings are bought with donations, which is idolatry."

Zitate
Sister Sara Sunday: I let you into the sacredness of Bethany Temple. And I let you into this temple. Fourteen years of purity I gave to you. You're not the first man to fake faith just to try to get to me. You're just the first one good enough at it to make me compromise.

Richard Rossi does it again

How talented is Richard Rossi! Great acting and honestly a very relatable topic as I've been in a church all my life and seen some corrupt things. I must also mention Dawna Lee Heising, wow she is one beautiful actresses... so glad they put her in this film. In all, a suspenseful film that will have you at the edge of your seat. Controversial? Yes, Entertaining? You bet! Thanks for making this. Canaan Land is a must watch in my book!
