Following on from sell-out sessions at this year’s Melbourne International Film Festival, Louis Theroux’s My Scientology Movie will be released for limited sessions in cinemas around Australia from September 8th ahead of his national live tour in late September.
If there was ever someone perfectly qualified to take on the mysterious juggernaut that is Scientology, it’s Louis. With the aid of former Scientology second-in-command, Mark ‘Marty’ Rathbun, he recreates incidents people claim they experienced with high profile members such as Tom Cruise and leader David Miscavige.
Seemingly littered with humour but also at times scarily honest, the film was created in collaboration with director John Dower and two-time Academy Award winning producer Simon Chinn (Searching for Sugar Man, Man on Wire).
