Movies and Documentaries

Films documenting survivors, abuse, and attempts to escape accountability.

All God's Children
"Through the eyes of three families, All God’s Children tells the personal story of the first boarding school for children of missionaries to be investigated for abuse at the hands of the parents’ missionary colleagues. The survivors and parents share their journey of seeking justice, redemption and healing."

Boys and Men Healing
"The documentary offers hope within a seemingly hopeless issue that effects us all, and is witness to survivors thriving and leading fulfilling lives." Click here to see a trailer.

Deliver Us From Evil
"Deliver Us From Evil is a superb documentary and a searing look at an institution protecting its leaders at the expense of its followers. A profoundly disturbing chronicle of a wolf in sheep's clothing, the film builds a clear-eyed case against pedophile priest Oliver O'Grady, and the Catholic bureaucracy that protected him. The recollections of O’Grady's victims are nothing short of shocking and heartbreaking."

Hand of God
"The film is a frankly told tale of betrayal. In balancing faith against disappointment the subjects survive it all with their humor intact. This is an engaging and vivid portrait of family, community and the triumph of individual spirit."

Holy Water-Gate
"The film examines nineteen years of an emerging crisis in the Catholic Church." Watch it now.

Searching for Angela Shelton
"In the uplifting and multiple award-winning documentary, Searching for Angela Shelton, filmmaker Angela Shelton drives around the United States surveying other Angela Sheltons. She discovers that 24 out of the 40 Angela Sheltons she speaks to are survivors of rape, childhood sexual abuse and/or domestic violence."

Vows of Silence
"Vows of Silence is an anatomy of the Vatican justice system, following the haunting saga of Father Marcial Maciel, who won the favor of Pope John Paul II despite years of pedophilia accusations."
