KNOCKING

By Joel P. Engardio and Tom Shepard
Produced in association with ITVS and LPB

ITVS Community is proud to support KNOCKING with a variety of community outreach events and materials, in anticipation of its national broadcast on Independent Lens on May 22, 2007. Screenings and activities will take place in May.

SHOW DESCRIPTION:

They are moral conservatives who stay out of politics, but they won a record number of court cases expanding freedom for everyone. They refuse blood transfusions on religious grounds, but they embrace the science behind bloodless surgery. In Nazi Germany, they could fight for Hitler or go to the concentration camps. They chose the camps. Following two families who stand firm for their controversial and misunderstood Christian faith, KNOCKING reveals how Jehovah's Witnesses have helped shape history beyond the doorstep.
