PURE tells the story of Noah Funk, a newly-elected Mennonite pastor, who is determined to rid his community of drug traffickers by betraying a fellow Mennonite to the police. But instead of solving the problem, Noah's actions trigger an ultimatum from mob leader Eli Voss: in order to protect his family, he must get involved in the illegal operation. Noah decides that if he must work for the mob, he will secretly gather enough evidence to dismantle the organization. Noah finds his beliefs and principles challenged every step of the way. Struggling to save his soul and complete his mission, Noah receives help from an unlikely source: his high school nemesis, local cop Bronco Novak. With his law-enforcement career hanging by a thread, Bronco sees the case as his ticket to redemption. —CBC

Entertaining and the based on a true story claim is very real
Watched the first season and found it an interesting premise and when they had made the claim it was based on a true story decided to research it.
Sort of wish I had not. The truth behind the story starts in the 1990s and there have been stories, encounters, arrests, and even a play based on it along the way. The incredible part is that original Mennonite kingpin died in 1994 and his reign was taken over by a family member. Needless to say their operations did and are currently running. I won't say who since this show is starting a second season.
The show has made some changes to the history of what happened of course but the main points are being followed from what I can see. I can't speak to what motivated them into going into crime though.
The second season is taking it up some notches already from what I can see. The acting was already decent to good but with Zoie Palmer and Christopher Heyerdahl being added I am very much excited to see where it goes.
The cinemaphotography is top-notch and the music good. If you want to have an idea where the season is headed lookup Abraham Harms on cbc.ca/news/canada
