Raw Faith

About This Movie

Raw Faith is one of those documentaries that pulls you right into the intimate world of a minister, Marilyn Sewell. The film really lays bare the contrast between her public success and private struggles. It’s not just about faith, but the loneliness that can come with it, and the yearning for something more. The pacing sometimes feels like it’s mirroring her internal conflict—slow and contemplative, yet with moments of urgency. The atmosphere is heavy with introspection, and you sense her emotional turmoil in every frame. It’s distinctive for its raw honesty; you can almost feel the weight of her decisions. Not a typical documentary, that’s for sure, and worth discussing amongst collectors for its candid take on personal faith.
