The Village

"The sleep of reason produces monsters"

By: Eliade Moldovan

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

A small, isolated community with limited access to technology and the outside world had a heavenly life, at least on the surface. This environment could be a fertile ground for a manipulative and puritanical religious figure. Is Father Quinn taking advantage of the community’s vulnerability? Or will his intentions, sooner or later, conflict with elements of progress? Or will his determination to keep the community from dangerous temptation bring happiness?

The arrival of a rebellious teenage girl, Anna, could trigger a fight between secular and religious concepts. Freedom in its recalcitrant form and the desire for redemption will clash with deadly consequences, and the result might have no winner since no one will abide by the other side’s perception of right and wrong or how this life should be lived.

What could change a struggle between reasoning versus faith, liberty versus accepting the well-known thousands of years old solid teaching of Christian scriptures?

A danger looming over the community could bring them together or split them further apart.
