The Downfall of the Sullivanian Community

The community known as the Sullivanians started in the mid-1950s as an alternative psychotherapy institute but transformed into a controlling cult. The story revolves around a woman, Maris, who attempted to reclaim her baby from the commune, shedding light on the manipulative nature of the commune's leaders. The institute, which began with progressive ideas about therapy, ended up restricting personal freedoms and controlling the intimate lives of its members. This dramatic shift illustrates the danger of ideologies that promote separation from traditional family structures while claiming to liberate individuals.
