Home Church
Feature Film
Non Union
Home Church is a contemporary character drama centered on a generation raised inside digital systems but starving for presence. The story follows Jesse, a recent college graduate forced to return home after her career prospects collapse, as she encounters an unconventional house gathering that offers something her world no longer does: unfiltered human connection. Structured as a character-driven drama with escalating social tension, the story explores technological alienation, economic instability, generational fracture, and spiritual hunger without caricature or polemic. The film operates in an intimate register — grounded, observational, and performance-forward — with the emotional gravity of Lady Bird or Manchester by the Sea, but thematically situated in the digital age. The narrative builds toward cultural conflict not through spectacle, but through proximity: what happens when embodied community begins to disrupt the normalized isolation of modern life.
