The Devil and Father Amorth

 

In his latest, William Friedkin returns not only to his documentary roots but to the subject of one of his most towering works, 1973’s The Exorcist. Friedkin, a legendary raconteur, leads a tour that begins at the infamous Exorcist steps in Georgetown and moves to Italy, where he meets with the 91-year-old Father Gabriele Amorth, official exorcist of the Diocese of Rome.  Friedkin receives permission to attend and film Father Amorth’s ninth exorcism on an Italian woman who has been experiencing troubling fits and behavioral changes that psychiatry could not fix.

A sprightly, at times gonzo-style, investigation into the long history of demonic lore, The Devil and Father Amorth is a one-of-a-kind insight into the persistence of medieval belief in a supposedly modern world.
