About the movie

Andreas Perr, a victim of sexual abuse from a small parish in Upper Bavaria, is taking legal action against the Archdiocese of Munich and Freising - and against Pope Benedict XVI, who, while still a cardinal, sent a letter from the Vatican enabling Perr's abuser to be reinstated. The gripping documentary follows CORRECTIV's worldwide search for further letters. These tell how the Vatican has known about perpetrators for decades. The film shows those affected who are breaking the silence of the Catholic Church, as well as journalists, activists and researchers who are searching for answers despite resistance. An investigative journey through archives, power structures and the systemic cover-up of the Catholic Church.
