Storyville: Leaving the Cult

Documentary which tells the story of three teenage boys who manage to escape a polygamist Mormon cult in Utah.

As they struggle to come to terms with life in the real world, we learn about the extraordinary lives they used to live - in houses with many mothers, where their sisters may be married off at 14 and, surprisingly, where no-one can wear red in case it offends the Second Coming. Powerfully emotional and compelling, a fascinating insight to a community it's hard to believe exists.
