Procession

This documentary tells the stories of a group of men that survived sexual abused when they were children. Although we could have heard about this topic a lot, this movie tries to focus on the power of telling (filming) our own stories as therapy: maybe they aren't actors or screenwriters but you can see their pain in each scene that is represented.

While clearly pointing out the crimes of the Catholic Church, I specially liked how respectful (and beautiful) the narration of the film was.

It's always been kind-boggling to me how people can be so disgusting. There is no excuse or appeal ever for pedophilia. I am appalled at what these men had to go through. It's so sad and heartbreaking to see grown men break down crying and feeling violated like that.

The concept of this movie was brilliant. It was the first time that I heard of cinema being used as a medium for therapy, and I loved it. Seeing the guys helping each other overcoming each of their own demons was sweet and powerful. I do wish the movie talked a bit more about the effect or mechanism of drama therapy, as this technique should be popular.

The pacing can be slow at times, but there were many strong and hopeful moments, especially when we started watching the scenes.

Overall, an amazing documentary that was both refreshing and powerful. 8-8.5/10.

Any documentary based on this subject matter deserves a ten. Any production that is presented by the victims themselves deserves a ten. Every minute viewed, every snippet of the traumatic experiences of these victims that is seen, all of it helps to raise awareness of what happened and what continues to happen within the priesthood. For decades, if not millennia, the priesthood has been the go to profession for sexual predators. Documentaries like these serve to remind us of that fact and should be seen by all those who want justice for the victims and who want the church and it's evil predators brought to account. 10/10.

This has to stop. It's ruined so many lives.

Wonderful stories of hope and survival. Kudos to all the survivors in this documentary, they are so brave to do this.

I couldn't stop crying as I feel the pain from each one of the survivors. A great documentary indeed and that young boy plays the role had such a big responsibility to act, understand and absorb the anger, pain feels by the survivors.

It's heartbreaking and I hope catholic archbishop will take serious in matter like this.

I am catholic myself and this is not right for everyone, all the authority to turn a blind eyes due to statue of limitations.

Something must be done so it won't happen to any children ever again.
