Synopsis
We learn about the inner workings of the CoG, aka The Family, and the machinations of David Berg, a self-declared endtime prophet. Berg died in 1994, before various law enforcement agencies around the world caught up with him. Perry Bulwer escaped The Family in 1991, managing to escape the cult's tight control while living in Asia. Returning to Canada, he tried to pick up his life where he had left it off two decades earlier. Through education Bulwer lost his religion, turning from religious extremist to secular humanist lawyer, fighting for the rights of sex workers and drug users living on the streets of Vancouver. Haunted by his own past, Bulwer became an advocate for thousands of second-generation survivors of the cult's child abuse and psychological trauma.
