Going Clear: Scientology and the Prison of Belief (2015)
Going Clear—a documentary film based on Lawrence Wright's book of the same name—is a thorough and unflinching examination of the Church of Scientology. The film combines expert testimony from former high-ranking officials, first-hand accounts from members of the organization, and archival footage to provide a comprehensive view of Scientology's practices and beliefs.
This two-hour film presents a devastating critique of the organization, which has been characterized as a pseudo-science and has faced criticism for its use of techniques like Dianetics. Whether you are a seasoned expert on Scientology or just starting to learn about the organization, this film is sure to provide valuable insight and information.
What is most astonishing is how many members of the organization remain loyal for years, even after being deceived and potentially losing their lives or having them completely ruined. Why does it take so long for members to admit that they have been swindled?
