CELIBACY
Celibacy Home | Synopsis | Interview

Is sexual denial healthy? Is there a link between mandated celibacy and sexual abuse? Why is celibacy required for the clergy? Who benefits from it and what is its effect on those who accept it? Directed by Emmy® Award-winning writer/director/producer Antony Thomas, this investigative film features candid interviews with current and former celibates of the Catholic, Buddhist and Hindu faiths, as well as historians, neurologists and psychologists, who provide new insights into why men and women may choose celibacy.
