Film recommendation: "Apostasy"

I just finished watching this movie, which shows a family torn apart by religious differences and the arbitrary rules of those in charge. Although it deals with JWs, they have many similarities with Mormonism.

Watch it for free here: https://ffilms.org/apostasy-2017/

(Don't click on the "play now" button; click on the still frame's white triangle)

Also at the same website is a movie about Warren Jeffs and the FLDS:

Thanks. It does hit close to home with some parallels to Mormonism.

The user reviews on the Imdb website include many who are former JWs, and they all say that the movie is very accurate, even down to the special JW vocabulary.

Maybe that's why I have such an aversion to JW. Because they remind so much of TSCC.

I used to have occasional nightmares about the Mormon church.

Last night I had one about Jehovah Witnesses.
