News Summary

• Aleshea Harris' "Is God Is" is a rich Southern Gothic with the soul of a 1970s revenge thriller.
• The film is powered by two sensational performances from Kara Young and Mallori Johnson.
• We get excellent turns from the likes of Mykelti Williamson, Janelle Monáe, and Erika Alexander.
• The entire cast is dialed into Harris' funky ( in the George Clinton sense ) energy, and no matter how crazy things get, she never loses her grasp on the material.
