Missionary

Grieving her mother's death and estranged from her husband, Katherine Kingsmen does her best to raise her son alone. When she meets a supportive and handsome Mormon missionary, what seems like a stroke of romantic luck slowly turns into a curse.

Directed by Anthony DiBlasi, Missionary leans on a strong ensemble — Dawn Olivieri, Mitch Ryan, Kip Pardue — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 2013.
