An excellent documentary with much to say about the Mountain Meadows Massacre, the most important being that the lives of the victims were not the only casualties.

Synopsis: On September 11, 1857, a wagon train of 120 men, women, and children bound for California were slaughtered under a white flag by Utah Mormons in one of the worst massacres in American history.... On September 11, 1857, a wagon train of 120 men, women, and children bound for California were slaughtered under a white flag by Utah Mormons in one of the worst massacres in American history. Through the actual testimony of a young girl who survived, interviews with descendants, and forensic investigations, this compelling film breaks through decades of coverup to expose a story kept out of the history books. Descendants of the massacre, haunted by the tragedy to this day, struggle to find forgiveness and healing. -- © Official Site [More]

Reviews for Burying the Past: Legacy of the Mountain Meadows...
Burying the Past is astute and brave, and, contrary to the current fashion in documentaries, fastidiously fair to all concerned.
A stunning documentary which makes the Latter Day Saints look anything but saintly.
