Description

What do you do when the person who raised your faith stops believing in reality? This laugh-out-loud and vulnerable debut MOMoiris about a homeschooled Pentecostal girl in the ‘90s, her flat-earther mother, and the hilarious, heartbreaking work of figuring out what's actually true. Susan Huckle was raised for the End Times: homeschooled on Bible prophecy, drilled on the signs of the Rapture, and taught to keep a bag packed for Jesus's return. Believing the world could end any day was comforting. It meant she didn't have to think too hard about why God still hadn't healed her father, paralyzed by a stroke. When Susan leaves her small town on California’s Central Coast to chase acting in L.A., the questions she's never let herself ask start catching up with her. Meanwhile, her mother falls down a YouTube rabbit hole: 9/11 truthers, mass shooting hoaxes, a flashlight app that's somehow spying on her. Then Mom announces she's a flat earther. She spent her whole childhood preparing for the end of the world. She never prepared for this. If Mom was wrong about the shape of the planet, what else was she wrong about? Susan isn't just losing her grip on the beliefs she was raised with. She's losing the person who raised her. Can a family survive when they no longer agree on what's real?
