There, she's subjected to religious discipline, but also finds sympathetic friends. The script delights in exposing the outrageous treatments and cruel concepts of this misguided approach, but it also presents a relatively rounded look at various "disciples" in the program. There's considerable focus on making the story earnest. The performances help, but the film never reaches an emotionally-compelling level.

Interesting film with a strong cast. At the crux of it is an unadorned view of both teenagers and adults trying to figure out sexuality. Some of them are misguided, and most make mistakes.
