About this film

Award-winning director Samantha Buck (BEST KEPT SECRET, THE MINK CATCHER) takes us back to 1926 when the most prominent evangelist in America is a woman who wants nothing to do with it anymore, and embarks on a road-trip to the southern border. Based on true events, SISTER AIMEE presents an indelible portrait of a woman who quite literally blazed her own trail in a time when all odds were against her and left a lasting impact on American religious philosophy.
