    Fantastic, watched it about a month ago, great that even more Aussies will get to see it.

    It was on SBS2 last month. Seems unusual that they are showing it again so quickly (but I'm pleased because I missed it last time).

    I think SBS1 is also available on analogue TV.

    Watched this last night. What a sad story, although very common within the watchtower. Most of these kids get baptized young, without really being dedicated. The whole disfellowshipping thing is twisted. The Bible says to stop associating with anyone "called a brother". So, if someone wants to quit being called a 'brother' or a 'sister', they should have that choice. Read the Bible, free choice is a sacred right. Make a choice, accept the responsibility. Shunning rarely moves someone to come back. Usually it makes the person more bitter and hurt. Love never fails, but shunning is not love. One thing I noticed about the movie was that Sara said to her father that she never contradicted the elders. Then she was seen telling her brother that Armageddon was not true, it was a lie. If she wants to make her own decision, then she should let her brother make his own.

    And how about the brother (elder?) with the beard? Very unusual, in my experience.

    I was an elder for 15 years. I wish I could go back and undo all the harm that I caused. I wish I had never agreed to disfellowship anyone. I wish I had known what love is.

    Do you live in Europe?
