Our Fathers background

Our Fathers

The film sheds light on the dark secrets within the Catholic Church, revealing the devastating tale of sexual exploitation and the systemic failures that allowed it to continue unchecked.

A scandal unfolded in the Boston diocese of the Roman Catholic Church in the 1970s and 1980s. Pedophile priests, led by Father John Geoghan, molested young boys, while Cardinal Bernard Law remained aware but took no action. Instead, he transferred the priests to new churches, concealing the crimes. Years later, victims came forward, and a lawyer sued Cardinal Law and the diocese for their silence.
