The Keepers

If you haven’t seen The Keepers yet on Netflix, then you are definitely behind on the times. It is your turn to catch up because this conversation is definitely still going. This documentary was directed by Ryan White and released by Netflix in 2017, and its popularity hasn’t died down yet.

This informative and mesmerizing documentary tells the story of Sister Cathy Cesnik, a teacher of English and Drama at Archbishop Keough High School in Baltimore, Maryland. Cesnik was murdered, and to this day the crime remains unsolved. However, this film does a magnificent job of diving into theories that may help solve the crime once and for all.

A big clue that may lead to Cesnik’s killer was the fact that Cesnik was aware of sexual abuse that was going on in the school by one of the priests. This was because students were comfortable opening up to her and sharing details of this horror to her. And Cesnik, being the lady of the Lord that she was, was ready to take action and put a stop to this terror happening in the church.

This religion-centered documentary is a good watch for anyone interested in learning more about the tragic conspiracies surrounding the Catholic church. The first episode may have you wonder if you should keep watching, as it contains a lot of backstory. But trust us. It just gets better, and you will be hooked by the end of the second episode.
