The Corruption of Divine Providence is a 2020 Canadian supernatural horror film, written, produced, and directed by Jeremy Torrie.[1] Set in a small Métis community in Manitoba, the film centres on Jeanne Séraphin (Ali Skovbye), a teenage girl who becomes possessed in a spiritual battle between good and evil forces.[2]

The cast also includes David La Haye and Elyse Levesque as Jeanne's parents Louis and Danielle, Corey Sevier as a Christian televangelist who becomes involved in Jeanne's case, and Paul Amos as Saint Francis, as well as Tantoo Cardinal, Eugene Brave Rock, Sera-Lys McArthur and Angela Narth in supporting roles.

The film premiered in October 2020 at the Reelworld Film Festival. It was subsequently screened at the 2020 Whistler Film Festival[3] and the 2021 Canadian Film Festival,[4] before being commercially released to video on demand platforms in May 2021.[5] At Whistler, Skovbye and Levesque were named as Stars to Watch by the British Columbia chapter of ACTRA.[6]
