Home Education is a 2023 psychological horror movie about a homeschooled girl whose doubts about her domineering mother’s twisted teachings spark a nightmarish unraveling of their beliefs.
Synopsis: Rachel, a teenage girl, has spent her life hidden away in a secluded house deep in the woods, trapped by her family’s unwavering devotion to a mysterious cult. Raised under strict rules, her education shaped by the cult’s teachings, Rachel’s world collapses after the death of her father, Philip. Her mother, Carol, grows even more oppressive, forcing Rachel to live alongside Philip’s decaying corpse while continuing esoteric rituals in a desperate, twisted attempt to resurrect him. Cut off from the outside world, Rachel’s only exposure to reality is the occasional trip into the woods for bizarre ceremonies. Within the confines of their home, Carol enforces a brutal, monotonous routine with an iron fist. However, when whispers of Philip’s disappearance spread beyond the woods, suspicion begins to grow, threatening to expose the dark truth buried within their isolated world.
