Going Clear: Scientology & the Prison of Belief

• Track Listing

Following Mea Maxima Culpa, his investigation into the Catholic Church, Academy Award-winner Alex Gibney turns his gaze to Scientology in Going Clear, based on the book of the same name by Pulitzer Prize-winning author Lawrence Wright. Gibney profiles eight former members of the Church of Scientology, whose most prominent adherents include A-list Hollywood celebrities, shining a light on how the church cultivates true believers, including their experiences and what they are willing to do in the name of religion. The film covers a broad range of material from the church's origins "punctuated by an intimate portrait of founder L. Ron Hubbard" to present-day practices and alleged abuses as reported in the media. The original score plays an important role in Going Clear. The music written and composed by Will Bates (Another Earth, I Origins) includes electronic compositions ranging from mid tempo tunes to ethereal and atmospheric sequences.
