SYNOPSIS
Founded in 1966 in California by a former organist and lion tamer named Anton Szandor LaVey, the Church of Satan has often been surrounded by mysteries, scandals and moral panics. Some of today’s active members of the church and other free-styled Satanists will share their views, memories, ritual practices and personal stories about how they got involved with Satanism, discussing the false myths that still surround the movement. AN AMERICAN SATAN, from director Aram Garriga (American Jesus), is an immersive journey into one the most fascinating phenomena of American religious pluralism.
