So, Closer to GOD is this intriguing indie drama from 2019, and honestly, it hits some heavy themes. It's like a modern retelling of Job, but with a twist—this lawyer's journey from the streets to the courtroom is compelling. The pacing has this ebb and flow that keeps you engaged, even when it digs into the darker parts of faith and morality. You can feel the weight of betrayal and greed pressing down on him and his family. The performances have a rawness to them, not overly polished, which somehow adds to the authenticity. The way they handle practical effects and real-life struggles makes it a distinctive watch in this genre. It’s not just about legal battles, it’s a wrestle with one’s soul, you know?
