WATCH THE TRAILER!
PRAISE FOR PRAY THE DEVIL
"Uplifting, disheartening, inspiring, enraging — the mind reels while watching the documentary Pray the Devil Back to Hell"

— The New York Times
"A marvelous documentary"

—The LA Times
"Gini Reticker's rousing documentary...is an uppercut to Lucifer's jaw, an object lesson in interfaith cooperation and an instructional manual for people committed to making systemic political change through nonviolent means."

— Colin Covert, The Star Tribune Minneapolis
"A lucidly impassioned film."

— Variety

ABOUT THE FILM
Pray the Devil Back to Hell is the extraordinary story of a small band of Liberian women who – armed only with white T-shirts and the courage of their convictions - came together in the midst of a bloody civil war, took on the warlords, and brought peace to their shattered country.
Pray the Devil Back to Hell reconstructs the moment through interviews, archival footage and striking images of contemporary Liberia. It is compelling testimony to the potential of women worldwide to alter the history of nations.
