Pray, Obey, Kill

- Season 1

(2021)

In a tiny Swedish village surrounded by forests, a man is shot. The police arrive to find a strange scene, made even stranger when they find a murdered woman in the neighbouring house. When a suspect emerges, no one can quite believe it.

In 2004, two suspects are held in police custody awaiting trial. One suspect's story contradicts the other. The investigators struggle to work out who is telling the truth - until technology catches up with the police's suspicions.

The trial begins and witnesses arrive to tell their truth about the Pastor and the Nanny. Some evidence is presented, whilst some is withheld. Who is the Bride of Christ? Did they all believe that she would go to heaven and marry Jesus?

The trial continues as the evidence is laid out by the prosecution. But what was the real focus in 2004? Did the trial have the full picture? The journalists make an unexpected discovery that questions the result.

An unexpected letter gives access to never-before-seen material fuelling journalists Martin Johnson and Anton Berg's investigation. They speak to the person at the centre of it, who finally reveals a missing piece of the puzzle.

Burning questions have finally been answered, and the motivations of those involved become clearer. The former members reveal the truth about the congregation's final days - and a new form of justice arrives in Knutby.
