Synopsis:
Knocking takes an unprecedented, inside look at how Jehovah’s
Witnesses have intersected with society beyond the doorstep. By fighting
for their right to live and worship as they choose, Jehovah's Witnesses
won legal victories that protected civil liberties and free choice for
all Americans. By refusing blood transfusions, but insisting on medical
care, Jehovah's Witnesses risked their lives in pursuit of new bloodless
technology now used on all types of patients. By resisting Hitler and
his Nazi army, German Jehovah's Witnesses were sent to the concentration
camps and became martyrs. Knocking tells a story of full dimension:
controversy, criticism, integrity, inspiration.
