God's Country (1985)
In 1979, Louis Malle traveled into the heart of Minnesota to capture the everyday lives of the men and women in a prosperous farming community. Six years later, during Ronald Reagan's second term, he returned to find drastic economic decline. Free of stereotypes about America's "heartland," GOD'S COUNTRY, commissioned for American public television, is a stunning work of emotional and political clarity.

While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.
While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.
The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.
Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.
