By Shore and Sedge

Set against the bleak backdrop of Tasajara Valley in 1856, a gathering of about four hundred people comes together for a religious revival, known as a "camp-meeting." Despite the harsh environment and emotional turmoil surrounding them, these individuals have deliberately chosen to encamp in this desolate location. The atmosphere is marked by feelings of dejection and anxiety, yet the event serves as a unique convergence of faith and community, reflecting the complexities of human experience in the face of adversity.
