Title: Welcome to Leith (2015)

IMDB:

Contributed By: Maureen

"Welcome to Leith chronicles the attempted takeover of a small North Dakota town by notorious white supremacist Craig Cobb. As his behavior becomes more threatening, tensions soar, and residents desperately look for ways to expel their unwanted neighbor.

What I felt so much watching this film is how when God's Truth and Love are not the goals we seek to understand and have prevail in situations of hatred and conflict (and if we don't own and feel all of our own unloving emotions without acting on them when faced with these types of circumstances), how easily we can descend into deeper and deeper levels of the hells (all the while believing we are doing the "right" thing)."
