  • Le Défroqué 

    A unbelievably powerful film about the priesthood and how divine intervention is used to save the soul of a single defrocked priest.

    "Be kind; do not seek the malicious satisfaction of having discovered an additional enemy to the Church... And, above all, be scrupulously truthful. To all, friends and foes alike, give that serious attention which does not misrepresent any opinion, does not distort any statement, does not mutilate any quotation. We need not fear to serve the cause of Christ less efficiently by putting on His spirit". (Vermeersch, 1913).

  • I generally don’t like films with subtitles, but this started with an interesting story. Unfortunately, the ending wasn’t very good.

  • I watched a few minutes and the subtitles are a bit hard to follow as they go by pretty fast, but can someone give a TL;DR of this film?

    It was tough to get through, but there were a few interesting and even edifying scenes. There was one fairly long scene that featured scantily clad women. As the title suggests, there are many people in the defrocked priests life who pray for his conversion. If you want, skip through the movie and watch the end and see how it finishes. I found it disappointing and in a way, disturbing. Tell me what you think.
