Masterful documentary focusing on firsthand primary source interviews. The survivors' stories enhanced my understanding of cult dynamics, red flags and brainwashing techniques. Robert Shinn has his followers convinced that they will suffer forever if they don't become slaves for him in every sense. This film will help inoculate the audience against similar predatory schemes.
I was especially moved by Priscylla's story in Part II. I wish her the best as she is healing from trauma and rebuilding her life. I admire her bravery in leaving and taking care of herself despite still being brainwashed at the time. I hope that over time, she feels with her whole heart that she is safe from the nonsense preached by Robert Shinn, that she experiences the love and worthiness she deserves, and that her relationships with friends & family continue to blossom and flourish.
