Lentorama 2014: We're Ready for Your Closeup, Your Highness
Day 28: Deliver Us From Evil
This 2006 documentary by Amy Berg follows Father Oliver O'Grady, who is moved from parish to parish in northern California in the 1970s to cover for his pedophilia. Benedict XVI appears in archival footage, as the focus of the story are the abusive priest, those who helped cover up his crimes, and those whose lives were shattered by them.
The film earned an Oscar nomination in the feature documentary category (losing to An Inconvenient Truth), but did pick up several awards from critic groups as well as DGA and WGA awards for Berg.
