It is an absolute poverty that the statute of limitations is the crown jewel of the Catholic Church. What does God think about that?

Introduction
After decades of secrecy, the patterns of sexual abuse throughout the Catholic Church became impossible to deny.
But while the revelations of abuse led to many news headlines and public scandals, many of the victims still privately struggle to find closure.
Robert Greene is one of the most interesting voices in contemporary documentary filmmaking, known for blurring the boundaries between reality and performance.
In this film, six men who were victims of sexual abuse within the Catholic church seek to address their trauma, joined by the lawyer who represented them all.
Procession serves as an act of healing, as each of the six men writes, performs, and films their own retelling of what happened to them while confronting the public systems that allow abusers to avoid prosecution.
