Synopsis
Greenleaf (2016) is an American family drama you can watch online on iFILM. Grace Greenleaf (Merle Dandridge) comes home to Memphis after her sister dies under murky circumstances. Home, in her case, means a sprawling megachurch where her father preaches to thousands.
Bishop James Greenleaf, played by Keith David, welcomes the prodigal daughter back. The rest of the family is far less thrilled. Behind the gospel choir and the Sunday crowds sit church money, affairs, a long feud between the sisters, and the secret that pulled Grace back in the first place. The deeper she digs, the wider the cracks in this devout dynasty spread. The series ran five seasons on Oprah Winfrey's OWN network.
What sets it apart is the rare, unmocking look at a Black Southern church empire — reverent about faith, clear-eyed about the power and cash that gather around it. A good pick for fans of slow-burning family sagas like Empire. Stream every season of Greenleaf online on iFILM.
