The Strange Church of Father Samuel | M6 | 66 minutes

Alain, 50, has not seen his wife and his three daughters for a year. They have all joined the community of Father Samuel, a Belgian priest, who also claims to be a clairvoyant and a healer. With his white beard, this highly charismatic preacher practises an old-fashioned religion, in the manner of Eastern Christians. His detractors call his community a sect. Eleven former faithful have brought actions against him for fraud and money laundering, but also for rape and sexual molestation. For his part, the monk claims he is the victim of a conspiracy. An investigation into a Church that has hundreds of members in Belgium and the North of France.
