The Exorcism of Emily Rose


This courtroom drama plays out against the backdrop of a failed exorcism. The priest who performed the procedure was convinced that the girl was possessed by evil spirits. During the process, the girl died, and the state held the priest responsible. While mostly set in the courtroom, the narrative has frequent flashbacks to the exorcism procedure.
