The film, set in the rural South, often portrays elements of Christianity as a superficial facade for the bigotry, hypocrisy, and mob mentality of the local community and law enforcement. Religious rhetoric is frequently invoked by characters who are perpetrating injustice and violence, aligning the faith with oppressive forces rather than offering a nuanced or positive counter-narrative.
