Doubt, A Parable

In this brilliant and powerful drama, Sister Aloysius, a Bronx school principal, takes matters into her own hands when she suspects the young Father Flynn of improper relations with one of the male students. Set in 1964 at a time before such scandals made the news, Sister Aloysius runs her church middle school with an iron fist and impervious moral rectitude. But when she questions the priest’s behavior without any proof, is it the pursuit of truth or the damnation of moral certainty?
