The French village of Montaillou was the last stronghold of Catharism in 14th century France. This faith had great appeal to illiterate villagers who had little understanding of the Roman Catholic Church they belonged to. However, in 1308 Pope Gregory IX enlists the Dominicans to root out and destroy the sect, who were persecuted and even burnt at the stake.
Based on previously unreleased secret documents from European Archives including the Vatican, Secret Files of the Inquisition unveils the incredible true story of the Catholic Church’s 500-year struggle to remain the world’s only true Christian religion.
