EVERY CATHOLIC WHO BURIES THEIR HEADS IN THE SAND SHOULD BE FORCED TO WATCH THIS MOVIE. THIS ISN'T HERESY...IT'S DOCUMENTED FACT THAT THE CHURCH TURNED A BLIND EYE TO THESE POOR GIRLS WHO WERE FORCED TO HAVE SEX WITH PRIESTS AND THEN SELL THE BABIES TO MAKE MONEY FOR THE CONVENT. THE MOVIE SHOOK ME AS A ROMAN CATHOLC MORE THAN SCHINDLER'S LIST.........SHAME SHAME SHAME
