Friday 26 June – Thursday 2 July, 2015
Relentless documentarian Alex Gibney (Taxi to the Dark Side, We Steal Secrets: The Story of WikiLeaks, Enron: The Smartest Guys in the Room, The Armstrong Lie amongst many others) turns his sights to the secret world of the Church of Scientology. Using Lawrence Wright’s book of the same name as a starting point, Gibney vigorously critiques the Church’s tax-free status as a religion, as well as investigating some of its high-profile adherents including Tom Cruise and John Travolta. Using rare behind-the-scenes footage and testimonials from ex-Scientologists – including Crash director Paul Haggis – Gibney challenges Scientology’s continual assertion that it is not a cult.
