What Is The Congregation About?
The premise of The Congregation without spoilers.
Anna, a trusting young woman, moves to the secluded village of Knutby to work as a nanny for a free‑church congregation that seems warm and devout. Soon the façade crumbles, revealing manipulation, power struggles, social exclusion, group pressure, brain‑washing and fervent fanaticism, mixed with charged religious rhetoric, ending in murder.
