Since 2004, more than 3,500 cases of child abuse committed by priests and Church members were reported to the Vatican. Hundreds of cases were and still are registered in Italy, where the influence of the Vatican is stronger than anywhere else, and it penetrates into many levels of Italian society. Often abuses fall silent, the cases are covered, the victims are afraid to make their voices heard. They fear people’s reactions, or those of their beloved ones, and their friends’. Victims are entrenched into an agonizing silence; they do not want to disclose the violence they have suffered. Forced to live with a burden they will carry with them for a lifetime, unable to forget the past. The scars are deep, the memories heavy, the silence deafening. “Confiteor (I Confess)” is a journey into these memories, into these scars, into this silences.
