A lot of movies wash over you, and that’s OK, even — many are almost designed to. Others, however, cast a pall over your day, and stick to your bones. Alex Gibney‘s Mea Maxima Culpa: Silence in the House of God is an example of the latter. One case of child sexual abuse is certainly a tragedy, but the stories at the core of this movie are beyond the pale. A gut-punch nonfiction look at the Catholic Church child sex abuse scandal as filtered through the experiential prism of a group of victims from a single Midwestern school for the deaf, and their long quest for justice, the Oscar-winning Gibney‘s documentary takes what seems by now to be an almost depressingly proforma tale of outrage and humiliation, and connects the dots to a much larger and systemic international cover-up by the Vatican.
