First Reformed
When a pregnant parishioner asks the Reverend Toller (Ethan Hawke) to counsel her husband, a radical environmentalist, the clergyman finds himself plunged into his own tormented past, and equally despairing future, until he finds redemption in an act of grandiose violence. Filmmaker Paul Schrader (Taxi Driver; American Gigolo; Affliction) delivers a gripping thriller about a crisis of faith that is at once personal, political, and planetary.
