Die Spitzel von Scientology

'Scientology' is one of the most controversial sects in the world. And yet even world stars like Tom Cruise and John Travolta follow founder Ron Hubbard's organization. What is far less well known is that Scientology has its own secret service, the Office of Special Affairs, or 'OSA' for short, commanded by Scientology leader David Miscavige in Los Angeles. It is the oldest private intelligence service in the world and larger and more influential than the intelligence services of many countries. But why does a religious community need a secret service? What methods does this mysterious organization use and with what goal? Who are the people who work for this office? To find answers to these questions, Frank Nordhausen and Markus Thöß spent more than a year researching with their cameras in Europe and the USA. The 'OSA' deals with dissenters and critics. Scientology agents have already been proven to be involved in espionage, burglary, coercion and other criminal offenses. During their research, the filmmakers finally even came across connections to high politics as far away as the State Department in Washington...
