Watch the Trailer: HBO Exposes the Cult of Scientology

“They sell it all at the beginning as something quite logical.”

And then it all spirals out of control, ironically through a very calculated, systematic machine.

HBO documentary Going Clear: Scientology and the Prison of Belief, based on author Lawrence Wright’s exposé of the Church of Scientology, dives into the dangerous and deceptive cult of the highly contentious “religion.”

Premiering at this year’s Sundance Film Festival, the film will make its TV debut on HBO on March 29th.

Early reviews praise its powerful, deeply revealing narrative, the weight of which is clear in the one-minute trailer alone.

Will it be enough to silence the cult?
