Moving from one parish to another in Northern California during the 1970s, Father Oliver O'Grady quickly won each congregation's trust and respect. Unbeknownst to them, O'Grady was a dangerously active pedophile that Church hierarchy, aware of his predilection, had harbored for over 30 years, allowing him to abuse countless children. Juxtaposing an extended, deeply unsettling interview with O'Grady himself with the tragic stories of his victims, filmmaker Amy Berg bravely exposes the deep corruption of the Catholic Church and the troubled mind of the man they sheltered.
A very interesting and insightful look at the corruption and cover up going on in the Catholic church about pedophile priests. The documentary focuses primarily on the Jyono family and deals with 2 other of O'Grady's victims. It also follows O'Grady's track record from the mid-1970s until the mid-1980s in 4 different California parishes. The most disturbing fact is how much damage this man was able to do on his own. Imagine it on a national and global scale.
