11th Annual Boston Gay & Lesbian Film/Video Festival
The true story of boys being sexually abused at their orphanage, run by a religious community in Newfoundland.
Based on disturbing recent events in Canada and elsewhere, this gripping drama of moral darkness centers on the St. Vincent orphanage for boys. Avoiding docu-drama-of-the-week formulas, the film (which also scrupulously avoids homophobic inferences) explores troubling sadism and pedophilia, neither smothering this touchy material in tastefulness nor betraying it through sensationalism.
