Keep Sweet: Pray and Obey (Season 1)

Keep Sweet: Pray and Obey (2022) is a true-crime documentary series you can watch online on iFILM. Across four episodes it traces how Warren Jeffs took control of a fundamentalist Mormon offshoot and bent an isolated community entirely to his will.

For the first time, ex-FLDS members speak on the record. Their accounts build into a chronicle of forced marriages, plural wives and suffocating control, where a woman's obedience was preached as a sacred duty. Rare home-video footage opens up a closed world — and shows the people who finally found a way out of it.

Director Rachel Dretzin skips the lurid angle for a measured look at how faith gets turned into a weapon of power. It's a heavy watch, aimed at anyone drawn to stories of real cults and the cost of leaving one behind. Stream every episode of Keep Sweet: Pray and Obey online on iFILM.
