A young woman (Jennifer Carpenter) becomes convinced that
demons are possessing her and when medical intervention appears not to work, she
turns to her family priest (Tom Wilkinson) for an exorcism. The story,
ostensibly inspired by true events, is of the trial of the priest, after the
young woman died during the exorcism. Accused of negligence, his church refuses
to allow him to take the stand and relate his version of the story. Also with
Laura Linney, Campbell Scott and Colm Feore. Directed by Scott Derrickson. [1:54
