这部电影根据真实事件改编，讲述了加拿大的圣文森特天主教孤儿院，教会神父对十岁的凯文和其他孩子们进行性虐待的故事。这个事件浮出水面后警方开始进行调查，丑闻才得以公布于众，而当地宗教和政治团体却始终保持沉默。This movie is based on actual events, but it says it is not all about one specific incident. It documents St. Vincent's Orphanage in Canada, where many of the boys suffer physical, emotional, and sexual abuse at the hands of the brothers who run the facility. When the stories are surfaced and a police investigation is begun, religious and political groups work to silence the story to keep it from reaching the public.
