This is a documentary about a institution previously known as Love in Action now called Restoration Path. It is the true story of a teenager who came out as gay to his parents and as a result they sent him to a "turn you straight" institution. The story was brought to everyone's attention because of the blog that the teen was keeping.It brought about a lot of attention specifically by those that were against this kind of institution existing. There ended up being protesters who would show up daily to make their feelings known to those running Love in Action.
I am trying my hardest to keep personal opinion aside about this kind of institution, but it is definitely hard. I liked the documentary for being to light what is going on and that there are some people who believe that you really can get rid of someone's sexual preference. This is not an easy movie to watch as you hear the stories of those that suffered at the hands of such an institution, but I think it is a good documentary.
If you enjoy documentaries, I would say give this movie a watch. Currently available on Instant Netflix.
