What happened?

a polish documentary on clerical sexual abuse has provoked a national debate over the role of the Church. Released on YouTube (with English subtitles available) as Tell No One, it interviews survivors and tells stories of abusive priests being moved from parish to parish. It also shows survivors confronting their alleged abusers.

The film has been viewed more than 20 million times and has led to a public outcry, as well as an investigation by Poland’s prosecutor general.
