ANGELMAKER tells the story of the internationally connected faith community Methernitha, which still exists in Switzerland today. Paul Baumann, its founder, not only built a self-sustaining commune but also claimed to have invented a world-changing energy machine. In 1976, he was sentenced to seven years in prison for multiple counts of child abuse.

At the heart of this documentary series are the powerful stories of the women who spent their childhood and youth within Methernitha and later helped set the legal case against Paul Baumann in motion.
