Women Sex Slaves of the Catholic Church is a very important documentary about a serious taboo that has been broken recently.
The film shines a
light on sexual abuse of nuns by priests and reveals that thousands of
nuns were sexually abused for decades by priests around the world. Women
have endured years of sexual predation, becoming pregnant, being forced
to have abortions. Here they openly testify and break the "omerta" on a
subject that has been drowning in the Catholic church for decades.
From
1994 until 2015 the Vatican was alerted by internal confidential
reports about churchmen that regularly rape nuns in more than 23
countries. These reports have been hushed up and the rapists continue to
harm freely. With the complicity of the ecclesiastical courts, their
victims have been reduced to silence, sometimes pushed to abort, often
excluded from their community.
Pope Francis admitted as early as
February 2019, that "Priests and Bishops" had committed sexual assaults
on nuns.
Following the revelations of sexual abuse, more nuns have begun
to speak out and denounce the attacks they have been subjected to. One
can't help but be curious that the Pope makes this public statement when
he knows the film will come out..
