Pray, Obey, Kill

[HBO] As in "Stieg Larsson: Mannen som lekte med elden", director Henrik Georgsson is interested in the investigation, and makes journalists Anton Berg and Martin Johnson protagonists of the documentary, who analyze the evidence obtained for the conviction of Helge Fossmo as the instigator of the murder of his wife and the attempted murder of her lover by Sara Svensson. It is a story of psychological domination, religious cult, extramarital sex and secrets kept in the Knutby community. The problem is that this investigation is leading nowhere. Journalists raise doubts about other people's involvement, specially Åsa Waldau, raising suspicions around her. But without really consistent evidence and, worse, based on the credibility of Helge Fossmo current statements. But it is not possible to hold an investigation into the words of a character who the same journalists demonstrated that he had lied on several occasions. In the absence of consistent evidence, the documentary dragged on trying to find stories about the oppression and violence that was exercised in the sect to give credibility to its theories. And the point of view doesn't work either, because it constructs frankly boring scenes in which the two journalists discuss the next lines of investigation. In a letter written by Åsa Waldau, she shows them her refusal to participate in the documentary because she thinks that her words will be adapted to the plot line of the press. And it certainly seems that what the documentary does is just that.
