Catch a glimpse behind the closed doors of the Church of Scientology in this Emmy Award-winning investigative documentary. The notorious belief system held by a slew of high-profile celebrities including Tom Cruise and John Travolta, Scientology has long been a mysterious point of interest. Here, Academy Award®-winning director Alex Gibney gets unprecedented access as the Church’s closed ranks begin to fragment: interviews with former Scientologists such as director Paul Haggis, actor Jason Beghe and former Scientology second-in-command Mark Rathbun reveal the discomfiting structures that make the system run. From workers paid six cents per hour, to extensive blackmail, to the manufacturing of Tom Cruise’s love life—this explosive exposé packs a real punch.
