Children of God: Lost and Found
Children of God: Lost and Found is a documentary by former second-generation member Noah Thomson. Thomson began working on the documentary in 2002 and its world premiere was held in January 2007 at the Slamdance Film Festival in Park City, Utah. It will reportedly air on the US cable television network HBO in mid-2007.
On January 23, 2007, members of The Family reportedly protested and noisily disrupted a question and answer session held after the film's second screening at Slamdance. The police were summoned to restore order and confiscate unauthorized recordings cult members made inside the theatre. This resulted in increased nationwide publicity for the documentary.
