Divided by Hate (1997) (TV)

In rural U.S.A., a family which aspire to become farmers struggle to make ends meet while they watch local farmers face ruin. A preacher draws the attention of the wife, who becomes a fanatic. Said preacher builds a closed community into which the wife moves with her children. The community members rob farm equipment, practice target shooting, and stock food. The husband tries to locate his wife and kids.

Telefilm of little consequence. It addresses a real problem of rural U.S., but the final captions ("still hopes to own a farm") give one the notion that bigger problems haven't been addressed.
