3/5
Here are sad, lonely, damaged men, clinging to their dog collars even as circumstances transform them into vices around their necks. Go to Full Review

3/5
The movie’s most striking feature is certainly not the unmerciful and grotesque sense of humour – his stylistic trademark – but rather the spine-chilling testimonies from the victims of clergy sexual abuse that burst unexpectedly into the fiction. Go to Full Review
Filipe Freitas Always Good Movies Apr 1, 2019
3/5
Although far from outstanding in its execution, the film served to re-initiate inflamed yet necessary debates about well-known abuses in the Catholic Church worldwide. Go to Full Review

Rey M Oct 25, 2018 Fearless, trenchant, and in a Grand Guignol style. The pictured priests somehow come through not just as beasts but (with one or two exceptions) as victims. They perpetuate the abuse and corruption that they had suffered as children in the hands of an human institution and environment. The film's impact in Poland (where I watched it) compares to Cranberries' Zombie role in shaking up Ireland's politics. See more
Leia M Oct 16, 2018 Great movie, so great that is banned in a few polish towns.
