The Keepers (II) (2017)
7/10
A tough watch
11 September 2017
Warning: Spoilers
First of all let me say how brave it is of these men and women to openly discuss the horrendous abuse they suffered at the hands of people they should have been able to trust.

The problem is it is a tough watch at times and let's be fair we all watch these documentaries hoping for justice and if not we want to be riveted episode to episode. For me this falls short in that department in the end it became a slog to get through all the episodes. Compared to docs like the jinx this is not in the same league as far as documentary making goes.

That been said the people who appear speak openly and engage us to feel so much emotion towards there awful suffering and how they've managed to forge lives whilst the evil bast*rds are not only free but within the Catholic church!!

Be prepared though we won't ever know what happened to sister Kathy which I have to say although the central story does get lost amongst the other stories of historic abuse. The only thing I'm sure of is that if there is a heaven Joseph Maskell won't be there. May he rot in peace.
