About This Movie

Flood, directed by Katy Scoggin, dives deep into personal narrative, blending documentary style with raw emotion. The filmmaker's journey back to her evangelical roots creates a powerful backdrop for exploring familial bonds and estrangement, particularly with her father. The pacing is deliberate, allowing moments of reflection that resonate long after the credits roll. There's a stark authenticity in the interviews, and the cinematography captures the essence of both the environments and the emotions involved. Practical effects are minimal, which makes the real conversations feel even more impactful. It’s that tension between faith and family that really stands out, giving the film a unique perspective that's both intimate and universally relatable.
