- Sister Dorothy in “They Killed Sister Dorothy”
The HBO documentary, “They Killed Sister Dorothy,” premiered before a sold-out, rapt audience of more than 500 at the Dayton Art Institute in Sister Dorothy’s hometown of Dayton, Ohio on Thursday, March 19, with the filmmaker and Sister Dorothy Stang’s family proudly in attendance.
Dorothy Stang, a nun with the Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur, spent her life working on behalf of peasant farmers in the Amazon rain forest. She was murdered on Feb. 12, 2005, in what is largely believed to be a contract killing sponsored by wealthy ranchers in the area who opposed her sustainable development project. She was 73.
“They Killed Sister Dorothy” debuts on HBO2 Wednesday, March 25 at 8 p.m.
