19 minutes, 1998
Ref: 18

A disturbing documentary about an extreme group. In North America, an anti-abortion movement is murdering doctors who carry out abortions. It's a new type of violence for the anti-abortionists, using assassins with high-powered assault weapons. The movement is known as The Army of God, with many of its advocates practising priests. Anti-abortionists associated with them were found guilty in a US court of inciting violence by printing the names and addresses of abortion doctors on the Internet. They were fined $100 million. The case pitted several doctors against some of the most militant voices in the U.S. anti-abortion movement. This disturbing report takes us inside this radical fringe movement.
