#NunsToo is a gripping exposé that shatters the silence around nuns abused by Catholic clergy, bringing into the open the cover up of alleged abuse by a powerful Jesuit priest and celebrity artist with close ties to the Pope.
A former Catholic nun who endured unspeakable abuse by a powerful Jesuit priest, breaks the silence by naming her perpetrator, reconnects with other survivors, and sparks a movement challenging the Church’s very bedrock of faith and authority.
Navigating a reality where adult victims of priests are often overlooked within the church and in the media, these women fight to reclaim their voices against gaslighting from the Vatican and believers who prioritize preservation over transparency, #NUNSTOO tells a story that, while long known within the Catholic church, is finally being heard.
