As pope Benedikt XVI. Joseph Ratzinger wanted to lead the Catholic church to old glory. Instead he presided over its worst crisis: The reports of rampant sexual abuse by the clergy inspired hardly any action from him. To understand the mind of this unconditional hardliner, documentary filmmaker Christoph Röhl reaches far into Ratzinger's past – but the really harrowing thing here are the witnesses' testimonies of how the church mishandled their clergy's crimes in both small and big ways.
