Faith Review: Intense Performances Power Startling and Unsettling Tale of Mysterious Suitor Faith, directed by Paul Andrew Williams, has been making waves at the Toronto film festival with its taut, unsettling mystery about an enigmatic suitor who courts a single mother in a downbeat British town.
Beneath its surface level narrative lies a scathing critique of Britain's forgotten places – economic and social wastelands that have been left to wither away.
The film is set in a small, unnamed town on the London estuary, where a candy factory stands as a symbol of hopelessness.
