Dec 27, 2021 Procession is a difficult but rewarding watch. I thought this was just gonna be a straightforward documentary about these 6 men and their horrific experiences with the Catholic Church. But it was actually about these men making films to process their trauma. It was a fascinating watch, seeing how drama therapy helped these men. The scenes they film are hard to watch but thankfully are done tastefully. Overall, this is a great documentary. If you are okay with watching something very dark give this a watch.

The film told it truly and beautifully. Its a great film. See more Nov 30, 2021 It's always been kind-boggling to me how people can be so disgusting. There is no excuse or appeal ever for pedophilia. I am appalled at what these men had to go through. It's so sad and heartbreaking to see grown men break down crying and feeling violated like that. The concept of this movie was brilliant. It was the first time that I heard of cinema being used as a medium for therapy, and I loved it. Seeing the guys helping each other overcoming each of their own demons was sweet and powerful. I do wish the movie talked a bit more about the effect or mechanism of drama therapy, as this technique should be popular. The pacing can be slow at times, but there were many strong and hopeful moments, especially when we started watching the scenes. Overall, an amazing documentary that was both refreshing and powerful. 8-8.5/10 See more Nov 25, 2021 An attack on the Church, shows that the film was made with bad intentions, I do not recommend watching it. See more Nov 24, 2021 A beautiful documentary that explores shared trauma and ways to move past it. It succeeds in making you feel so empathetic and proud of these men moving on from the demons who have haunted them for decades. Absolutely essential viewing! See more Nov 21, 2021 A long but harrowing and emotional look at the very brave men who took on a journey through drama therapy to help deal with sexual abuse by Catholic priests. This film will no doubt help many abuse survivors after sharing their stories and not only those perpetuated by the church, although it highlights the pure evil that lurks amongst its ranks!
