Cinema in the USA: God with cooking

Anyone who still has archaic technology as television with a cable connection and sometimes engages in comparable Zap. There, a female voice from disconnecting to amateur pictures of nature often speaks incomprehensible sentences at night, which in some way sound religious.

You can consider this real, but, obviously, these contributions should reproduce “Divine Revelations”. On the broadcasting website, this summarizes his “philosophy”: “TV presenter television New time of television heralytes in modern times.” People can find people again and act accordingly and act accordingly, and this in all areas of life: at work, in children’s education, in work with nature and animals, in society, economics and politics, as well as in everyday cooperation. ”

The American feature film, which is now coming to the cinema in Germany, talks about such a “new time”, also with God in His luggage. “Manor” is an apocalypse and a new world, which is then created by the main characters.

God and society

There is also a female voice from the exit, in this case, he belongs to the actress Dawn Olivieri. What this says may seem less confusing from the first impression than with a religious television station. This is all the more creeping, since God is trying to use society in his monologue.

“Homesead” is a rather small production with $ 8 million, director Ben Smallbone mainly shot music clips, and there are also no stars from the first row. The drama “end” seems optically and with its wooden, acting as the average television series. The film also serves as a pilot sequence for this. When Homestead began in the United States in December last year, two more episodes were already available. What is especially interesting is to obtain knowledge that can be pulled out of fabric.

The film and the series were produced by the American media, the company “Angel Studios”. The company in Utah was created in 2021 during the bankruptcy of Vidangel streaming, which primarily offers censorship for unwanted content, and, like this, was founded by the Nile and Jeff Harmon brothers. Both are recognized by Mormons.

Another product from Angel Studios is the feature film “BonhoEFFER” (2024), for which there were debates. Historically, he is inaccurate and interpreted by the Pacific theologian Dietrich Bonhofer supporter of armed resistance, according to criticism. The film was especially accused of encouraging Gospel Christians to act against the state by force.

Disaster film with atomic bomb

The “manor” is directed precisely in this political direction. At first it begins as a regular disaster film. A terrorist attack with a dirty atomic bomb contains most of California, chaos breaks, people are running. At the same time, the national failure of the authorities is paralyzed by the eastern coast of the United States. The family in Los -Angeles can see how she is in a hurry with Tesla from a generous house, another, living in a more modest house, is torn at the same time. Both have the same goal: the estate.

Behind this word, which can mean “house” and “manor”, ​​hides the enormous property of Jan Ross (Neil McDono). This Ross is placed as a burning blue -eyed noble leader who holds a small armed detachment as a security service, grows grain, fruits and vegetables, controls the livestock business and still set up generators and other things to be able to provide himself and “his people” after the great collapse.

The film accompanies the inhabitants of this “house” on the path to independence, with the inevitable obstacles that appear in crisis stories. No less blue security expert Jeff (Bailey Chase), who was with the military and traveled with his family, immediately suspects enemies from any place. What is implied is hungry civilians who are looking for food.

Since then, the object has been ensured, even his teenage son Abe (Tyler Lofton) must keep the guard with a rifle. When he accidentally shoots an armed hunter who probably does not dance on the green boundary of the encroachment on the ground, the concept of self -defense begins to be fragile.

The answer to all problems is in God

The decision for the endangered festival will finally bring the wife of Jan Ross, Jennu (Dawn Olivieri). When her husband was injured from the shell and unconscious for several days, she finds an answer to all the problems in God. Instead of counting scarce actions, like her husband, she brings a controlled number of people awaiting in front of the gate.

And, and now, their skills can even be used to increase the yield of food, so this is enough for everyone. The wonderful growth of bread welcomes.

Well, where is the problem, you can ask? The estate does not describe the path of liberation from the paranoid acquisition, which is protected by a weapon, to a cheerful message of love, which will undoubtedly be received. The new one, which is announced instead, is part of the ideological arsenal of Christian law. This is most obvious in the escalation of history.

Entrance to the script system

At the same time, it shows the lies of the script. The almost deadly ball on which Yang is coming from the pistol of the public official Blake Masterson (Kerry Graham), who wants to largely allow the fortress with his inhabitants not a registered meeting. The conspiracy course suggests that he is concerned about the above -mentioned accessories.

Since the film plays in California, it can be assumed that Masterson, who seeks to eat, is a representative of the Democratic Party. Distrust of the political establishment, which is fed as Christian fundamentalists and the Republicans, is so condensed in this figure in the sense of the Magician movement. And, as in real United States, this is criticism of “corrupt elites”, which are practiced from the point of view of the economic elite.

In fact, this corresponds to the technological billionaires of the silicone valley. Jan Ross, for example, is represented by the embodiment of the right libertarian entrepreneur Peter Til.

The novel “Black Autumn: The Postocaliptic Saga” of the war veteran Jeff Kirkham and St. Jason Ross served as a template for the “Manor”. Book 2018 was published by the publisher “Defiance Press”, which, according to Bloomberg News, publishes primarily on the topics “God, country, freedom and conservatism”.

Publisher – “Activist for conservative things”

Its publisher David Thomas Roberts describes himself as “political activists in the conservative and libertarian affairs.” (By the way, it should not be confused with the Ragtime composer of the same name, on which the Wikipedia page is erroneously related to Pecancial Press.)

The estate has still included about 21 million dollars in health insurers. In Germany, he was brought to cinemas with an independent rent “Cinema Tar”. The film “Closes the problems of life together in extreme conditions and asks moral questions about leadership, trust and survival price,” says the press release. If you expect an intellectual game in the end, you can only disappoint.

Angel Studios previously released a movie star in BonhoEFFER and the animated film “King of Kings” in Germany, and this year four other productions followed. When he was asked, the rental replied that the HomeSead film gear was noticed “not as a political statement.” Close cooperation with Angel Studios “on a cinematic, non -political basis.”

“We created something new”

By the way, with his “truth”, HomeSead really moves only by the end. “Correctly” refers to understanding. Because the truth remains euphemistical. When the conflict of history begins to lie, Jenna announces from the very beginning: “After the great promise of our nation violated, we created something new.”

The fact that this may look in the open air, the message that Deutschlandfunk published a good month ago: “Gospel movements, such as the“ New Apostolic Reformation ”, want Christian dominance in the United States: instead of democracy and the rule of law, Christian auto coloring. Its influence extends to the White House. ”
