1 In the summer of 2003, Chantal and I arrived

at the annual training camp.

I thought...

I thought that it would be the best place to gather information.

The activities started.

We were told to undress.

They said, "you must undress".

You also had to masturbate.

They told you to... to smell your scent.

Chantal and I felt very uncomfortable.

Then, um, they asked us something I'll never forget.

You had to take a mirror and examine your anus.

So Raël was forcing people to forget their boundaries.

He was breaking them.

I didn't feel safe.

Raël is a malicious manipulator.

He's addicted to female submission.

Oh, là, là, the details!

I have such sweaty socks!

- Always look at me. - Yes.

Give me the cup.

- Let's clear the frame. - Cup!

- Can you take care of that? - Yeah, I finished long...

- Never come like that, without talking. - Sorry.

- You'll give me? - Yes, yes. Here you go.

Like that, I choose when I want.

RAËL: THE ALIEN PROPHET

I remember... feeling deeply uneasy.

It felt totally surreal.

I couldn't believe it. I couldn't believe...

{n8}that I was there, and that this existed.

It was kind of a... highly symbolic ceremony,

where naked women looked at Claude Vorilhon,

in a praying position.

Like he was receiving an offering.

I could tell how much he loved this kind of submission.

"I control them. They're all for me. I'm the big boss."

Let us be worthy of the privilege to live in His presence.

Thank you, Raël.

The naked women we just saw belonged to the Order of the Angels.

And the Order of Angels were the women most desired by men.

In the early 2000s,

{n8}Raël informed us that the Elohim

{n8}wanted Raël to create an Order of Angels,

{n8}made up of women

{n8}who would be ready to welcome them.

It's an order of women within the Raëlian movement.

They are at the service of the Elohim,

here on Earth,

{n8}and to serve Raël, obviously...

{n8}of course.

So, I thought, "Nadine, of course."

"You must be part of this... of this Order."

And when I became an Angel,

it was moving, I felt...

immense love.

You created an order of nuns?

- An order of Raëlian sisters? - Raëlian sisters. Angels.

- Angels you say? - They're heavenly. Yeah, much prettier.

Isn't that copying the Catholics?

Well, if you interview a few of the angels,

you'll see that they're...

more enticing, much nicer than nuns.

I took part in an Angels' meeting.

For an hour,

we passed cups of tea to one another.

We did a tea ceremony, like the Japanese ritual.

I thought, "What are we getting into?"

"What is this? We're not geishas."

But actually we were.

In the Order of Angels, there were the White Feathers.

White Feathers could have sexual relations

with the Elohim, when they came.

And, of course, with the Elohim's representative on Earth,

the prophet.

But the White Feathers

could have sexual relations with other people as well.

Pink Feathers were reserved exclusively

for the Elohim and their representative on Earth.

The others practiced abstinence.

The Pink Feathers signed a contract

{n8}where they committed themselves to be sexually exclusive with Raël.

{n8}And they also promised never to refuse him.

Ultimately, they were sex slaves.

If Raël wanted to have sex with them...

they were not allowed to refuse him.

Bang, bang!

At the camp, he was always surrounded

by a group of female attendants.

Bang, bang!

Bang, bang, bang, bang!

Raël!

And, when he found a young girl,

a young woman he liked,

he just went for it.

It never lasted for long.

He did have a wife,

Sophie, who joined him.

His wife Sophie was a young woman who was very beautiful.

Raël married Sophie when she was just 16,

with the consent of her mother, who was a Raëlian.

He was 30 years older.

And Raël made it clear to Sophie that she was born to serve him.

Sophie's birth had been programmed by the Elohim,

so she was preordained to become Raël's partner.

Hello!

Sophie accompanied Raël to several events.

But she was very discreet, and they used that.

She served as an ambassador for the movement...

for activities that required nudity.

{n8}For example, she posed naked for Playboy.

{n8}She posed naked, with a UFO in the background

{n8}to promote the movement.

{n8}Raël never posed naked in any magazines ever.

{n8}Sophie lived with him for 25 years,

{n8}and, overnight, he got rid of her like... you know...

like a child who throws away a toy he doesn't want anymore.

{n8}After I read the article in Playboy,

I basically saw Raël as a sex maniac.

And I thought,

"If I want to welcome the Elohim,

I don't want to welcome them like a high-class prostitute."

"I want to welcome the Elohim as a guide."

"I don't want to be at someone's beck and call."

"Where would it end?" I couldn't handle it anymore.

What convinced you to decide to come forward

and talk publicly on television about your experience in the movement?

I decided to speak out publicly,

because I realized that it was probably a scam, so...

- Is he egocentric? - He loves being served.

- He's temperamental? - He wants his desires satisfied.

- And he feels he deserves the best. - What are his desires?

Well, for example, having a good time with a pretty woman.

He's not going to hold back with that. You know?

So, I decided to come forward.

I finally understood a few of the things I had observed while in the movement.

Let me tell you something.

I saw him with girls who were 16, 17 or 18.

My daughter, who was under 18 when she was in the movement,

was summoned by him.

I had to say something,

to warn Raëlians, and possibly warn other people.

I never understood why so few people were ready to talk.

It remains a mystery to me.

I took part in some events

where the women were undressing...

in public.

It was hard.

It made me feel so uneasy, just being there.

Luckily, our investigation was going well,

even if we were missing segments, especially on cloning.

We couldn't find anything.

During the infiltration, I managed to ask questions.

Everyone said, "We don't know the people involved in the cloning experiment."

"No one has met them, we don't know where they are,

but it's just as well."

- Raël! - Brigitte. Thank you. Thank you.

Just a little more...

Regarding human cloning,

Brigitte and Raël knew how to pacify the Raëlians.

I was actually the only one working in the lab.

I knew what was happening.

And having been on the inside, I can tell you assuredly...

that it's all fake.

...first baby clone.

FLORIDA

{n8}At the time, Brigitte came to tell me

{n8}that the following day,

{n8}she was going to announce...

the birth of the first cloned baby.

When she told me that, I was shocked. I didn't understand.

{n8}How could she announce the birth of a cloned baby,

{n8}when she had no team to even start a human cloning project.

{n8}I'm very, very pleased to announce that the first baby clone...

{n8}uh, is born.

{n8}We call her Eve.

{n8}She was born yesterday at 11:55.

{n8}You need to understand that I never even had

a single scientific discussion with Brigitte, never.

Not even one.

She wasn't interested at all.

All she cared about was the media, and journalists, investors or clients.

It was only about advertising, marketing, stuff like that.

The only times she came into the lab were to have her picture taken.

One day, a pro photographer came,

so she donned a lab coat and sat down in front of a microscope.

She was so awkward.

She had no idea how to use the microscope at all.

Okay, so thank you for your attention.

And I think that's... that's okay.

So then, after the announcement,

she asked me to keep silent.

She said that she understood I was shocked and bothered,

because it was all a lie.

But she said, "We'll end up doing it anyway, so...

it's not really a lie, it's just a little, uh...

premature, that's all."

And then she said, "Raël is okay with it."

{n8}Are you a con artist?

{n8}That's so... it's so funny, because, well, you don't know me.

{n8}But how can you go in front of all the world,

{n8}and say something like that if it's not true?

{n8}- How can you? - To make a lot of money.

{n8}You should look at my car.

{n8}Look, I've been spending all my money

{n8}to do those babies.

I was sick, sick to my stomach.

I was uneasy.

That was the beginning. The beginning of my descent into hell.

It was the beginning of...

of uh... 13 years of psychological torture.

{n8}If we are to believe the cult of Raël,

{n8}the first cloned baby has been born.

{n8}It's the world's first cloned human baby.

It's a clone of its own mother.

{n8}The Raëlian cult claims to have succeeded yesterday

{n8}in delivering the first cloned baby.

{n8}Well...

{n8}This is by far...

{n8}the craziest and most bizarre story

I have ever heard in my life,

because it wasn't true.

and fortunately, it didn't hurt anybody.

I guess the only real... you know, victims here,

and I say this with, you know, with tongue-in-cheek,

are the Raëlians.

I mean, they come across as complete fools.

{n8}Raëlians were split into two groups.

{n8}Those who said she did it and those who said she didn't.

I'll tell you something shocking.

If she did it, "Well done, Brigitte."

If she didn't do it, "Well done, Brigitte, for daring to make us dream."

For me, it was a... a massive lie.

There's one question I'd like to ask Brigitte Boisselier.

How can you live with such a lie on your conscience?

So, how is Eve doing?

How is Eve doing?

I think she's well. There's been no news recently.

And, how do you keep in touch with her?

So, contact with the parents always happens through third parties.

Until recently.

And not that often. Very rarely.

Very rarely.

Why don't you show Eve to the world?

Why don't we show her to the world?

I think, well,

we could potentially do it at this time,

but for the moment, it's uh...

I don't think it would be very useful.

You know?

But maybe she would... want to be seen.

Honestly, I'm in utter dismay.

She's got some nerve!

I think it's the love she has for her prophet.

She'd do anything for him.

For her, the human cloning project wasn't... wasn't a goal in itself.

She only did it because Raël asked her to.

She thinks she's a hero who gave her all for the mission.

The fact that her mission involved lying, cheating,

and committing criminal or illegal acts

{n8}doesn't bother her in the slightest.

After nine months of infiltration,

in autumn of 2003,

we had what we needed.

We just had to unveil what we saw within the movement.

Psychological manipulation, brainwashing, indoctrination strategies.

The report was intended to expose all of this.

{n8}Two journalists say they infiltrated the Raëlians over a nine-month period.

{n8}I spoke with reporter Brigitte McCann and photographer Chantal.

{n8}I began by asking them

{n8}what surprised them most about the Raëlians.

{n8}Uh, probably the way they are indoctrinated,

{n8}and believe every word,

{n8}every single word that Claude Vorilhon says.

I think the media liked the subject of my report.

{n8}Do they really believe that there are some cloned babies somewhere?

{n8}Uh, well, personally, I don't. I don't believe it.

{n8}And, from what I saw over there, there's no evidence.

After the human cloning hoax,

the media... were resentful.

So, it was almost like revenge.

At that point, we were all very aggressive...

{n8}Good evening...

{n8}...in kind of putting down the whole claim

{n8}that they'd cloned this baby, and there was an actual baby.

And he found himself very much on the defensive.

{n8}- I want to know... - Yes.

{n8}...if there is any evidence.

{n8}Have you seen...

{n8}Do you know of anyone

{n8}who has met the parents or seen the baby?

{n8}That's the question, tha... that until there are proofs,

{n8}it's good to have doubts.

{n8}And, I am, like everybody, waiting for proofs from, uh...

{n8}from... to happen, but uh...

{n8}You do doubt that there might be... might not be a cloned baby?

{n8}I trust Dr. Boisselier,

{n8}so I think, uh, there is, because I have no reason to doubt her.

It was ridiculous.

This investigation had an impact which was very constructive, I think.

Informing people on the dangers of sects,

of the fact that very intelligent people can be vulnerable.

It's important for people to know,

and for parents to know

what their children are getting into

when they go to a Raëlian meeting.

I think I contributed to making them,

at least in Quebec,

persona non grata.

Some public institutions got involved,

and started looking into the various advantages

that the Raëlian movement was receiving,

because as a Church,

well, of course, they weren't paying any taxes.

And some police services looked more closely

into the affairs of the Raëlians.

It became much more difficult for Raël to carry on like business as usual.

He was cornered.

The movement began to decline.

Raël packed his bags and left.

He gave up the property he bought for less than $200,000 in the late '80s.

I remember a lot of Raëlians were lost,

because they felt Raël had really let them down.

It felt like a giant balloon that deflated instantly.

It all just vanished.

And he left Canada for Japan, in 2007.

If they think they can stop me, it's so stupid,

because, nothing can stop me.

If they think killing me will stop the movement, it's opposite.

It will be the most wonderful advertising for the movement.

JAPAN

{n8}THE LAST PROPHET

{n8}Why is Raël the prophet? Because he was conceived for this end.

- You want me to stick it a little more? - No, no, perfect.

He teaches happiness. For me, he's a guide.

So?

I really hope you get to meet him.

The fact that people who I made happy,

who I freed from guilt,

whether it be sexual or otherwise,

and who are experiencing greater happiness than before they met me,

pay homage,

it's great.

{n8}"Prophet" is just a word.

{n8}What counts is the message he conveys.

Raël decided to go to Japan

in order to spread the message of the movement

far and wide, all across the planet.

He's still carrying on?

I was not aware of this.

Feel the love!

Raël! Raël! Raël!

{n8}He's still going.

He looks like someone.

Like Bhagwan.

Be everything.

And nothing.

That's super-consciousness.

That's being a Buddha.

He's very skilled at reimagining himself.

He really relates to Buddhism.

There is a very close link, almost an osmosis, really.

He wants to convey wisdom.

With his beard, he wants to show his maturity as a...

divine being.

People practice remembering things.

I practice forgetting.

Completely forgetting the past.

Hani, my assistant.

- Hello. - And Sky.

Mmm...

She is... the love of my life.

I am privileged enough to have...

these two angels...

who attend to me,

and who make my life much easier.

I don't want to be a prisoner of my past.

I'm different today from who I was yesterday,

or who I'll be.

I am who I am now.

That's...

That's who he is.

With all his endless lies.

You are...

the image of Elohim on Earth.

Feel it!

You are Elohim.

Ah...

Ah...

We can give love.

Because if we give love,

we have more chance to build the embassy.

I'm impressed by his tenacity.

You need such mental strength

to last half a century surrounded by lies.

I haven't invented or added anything.

I'm the last prophet, the one who reveals,

the messenger, nothing more.

I don't walk on water, I don't turn water into wine.

Everything. It all comes from the Elohim.

What's the purpose of life?

To be happy.

To be happy. It's extremely simple.

Whatever you do, whoever you are, if you're not happy...

there really is no point in living.

Happiness is to never stop laughing.

"You're not being serious, Mr. Raël!"

No, certainly not!

Beware of serious people.

That's why I went to Japan.

Raël relocated to Japan to protect himself.

He hasn't been in France for decades.

He probably won't return to the US either.

The Japanese court can't deal with crimes that didn't occur in Japan.

For example, the baby cloning scam.

Well... Well, that's... a lot of lying media.

But that's... that's... that's hyperbolic.

It's a lot of the lying media saying,

"Raël did some cloning."

Never ever.

I have neither the will nor the skill set.

I'm not a scientist.

To tell you the truth,

I probably would have never even mentioned cloning,

if, uh, the Pope himself had not mentioned it.

He was against cloning, and I thought...

"Let's create a cloning venture."

Everything the Pope says, I try and counter it.

To me, he is the epitome of guilt,

and the worst for humankind.

So I created a shell company, Clonaid,

a PO box in the Bahamas,

just so people could say,

{n8}"Raël is launching a human cloning company."

{n8}Then, Brigitte Boisselier came along,

{n8}and told me, "I'd like to do it for real."

I said, "Go ahead."

And suddenly, there was a massive outcry,

that led us to the American Congress,

to testify with Brigitte.

We thought it was hilarious.

Was it clear to him that it was all a load of hot air,

that it was really all just a big hoax?

It's possible.

At this point, what's clear to me

is that Raël couldn't care less

whether human cloning succeeded or not.

All he really cared about was publicity.

It's a pattern.

Claude, we've heard your story,

you're claiming to us that you met an alien?

We may be somewhat skeptical.

It's the most honest way that I can say it.

He loves the limelight.

It probably started sometime in his childhood,

because he was rejected by kids his own age,

and he dreamed of becoming important, becoming famous.

{n8}RAËL'S AUNT

{n8}As a kid,

{n8}he always told incredible stories.

{n8}He had a lot of success, after the aliens.

We wouldn't be talking about him, if he hadn't seen them.

{n8}Such a friendly boy.

He's an endless web of lies.

Lie, after lie, after lie. It's just an accumulation of lies.

He started from scratch.

Raël is one of a very small number of French people who succeeded in building

a multinational institution in the field of religious sectarianism.

I'm very happy with what I've achieved

with the means that I've had.

I'm very pleased.

And now, everything is ready for the movement to carry on after me.

When I disappear, another guide will be elected.

They can come from any country on Earth.

IVORY COAST

- What's your name? - Malik, thank you so much.

Do you recognize the Elohim as our creators?

- Yes. - Okay. I'll perform your baptism.

Lift your head.

The Elohim recognize you.

Let's see... Do I see myself as the African Raëlian prophet?

I do. Yes, I do.

{n8}RAËLIAN SINCE 1995

{n8}I see each moment that passes with our prophet Raël still alive

as a generous gift from the Elohim,

a kindness.

As he says himself, he accomplished his mission.

But if we can create an embassy,

and he can see it before he leaves,

he deserves to.

I'm convinced we will do it.

My life is devoted to the Raëlian message.

I live for it. If I stop, I stop living.

It's looking good on the Ivory Coast.

Four hundred members and thirty guides.

It's growing.

It's evolving.

It's amazing.

As disciples of Raël, we held field campaigns

in several African countries.

They were very successful. We invited Dr. Boisselier and Raël.

I traveled a lot with Raël across Africa,

because even if Raëlism is banned in France and Canada,

Africa is the place where the movement can take off.

The first time the prophet came to give a seminar...

it was amazing, it was special.

Africa was vibrating. Raëlians jumped on him.

He felt warmth and danced with us.

He talked, he taught.

It was absolutely wonderful.

You must be...

You must believe in you.

To do so, you need to draw from your cultural roots.

Any African with self-respect

cannot carry on being a Christian.

Among your ancient gods, the Elohim are also there.

They won't make you equal...

but superior to the former colonizers.

Peace be with you.

I'm convinced that this continent, which went through so much,

whether it was slavery, colonization, or neocolonization,

so much,

this continent deserves to welcome the aliens,

who created life on Earth.

It's kind of like saying, "The last... The last shall be the first."

Some of you have come from very far.

Is the delegation of Man here?

Welcome!

Do we have people from Abidjan?

Long live the Elohim!

Long live the Elohim!

The continental guide is among you!

Absolutely, I'm fully behind it.

I support the building of the Embassy in Africa.

We just saw one star disappearing.

We still see the light of this star,

like we can see the light of the Elohim

in every bit of creation in this desert.

When we build the embassy,

they will come back.

So just close your eyes for a few minutes,

breathe deeply.

That's around the center of the galaxy...

I'm almost retired...

...but, you have to train yourself to listen.

And I'm a 74-year-old survivor.

And the embassy,

I'd be very surprised if it was done while I'm still alive.

Very surprised.

Happy, but surprised.

Because, for me, it's a long-term mission.

I'm not sure if it will happen while I'm alive.

I'm not even sure if I'll be alive tomorrow.

I don't think it will happen by tomorrow.

I hope to be reborn.

You know, I would really love that.

But today, I am also very happy.

I have a life I couldn't have imagined.

{n8}I realized that, over the course of five decades,

{n8}the person who remained loyal and with me during this entire time

has been Raël.

One way or another,

if I die and don't reach eternal life,

I won't know it.

It'll be over, finished.

Or, I'll wake up in Heaven,

surrounded by lovely girls ready to pamper me,

maybe someone like Marylin, and...

What more could you want?

I have, uh... an incurable illness,

so I might not have the opportunity to see them one day...

It's just, really...

You know, Raël always says the Elohim

are such happy and funny people, so filled with joy.

He says that they laugh all the time.

So, the fact that I'm crying...

It's just totally wrong. I need to laugh more.

The fact that we got the planet ready to welcome our creators...

is already something.

He stole 33 years from me.

It's hard to admit.

For me, it feels a bit like, at the age of 51,

I've woken up from 33 years of hypnosis.

What now?

What have I achieved in my life?

Where have those 33 years gone?

And what am I going to do now?

I was experiencing a sudden existential crisis.

When I think about it now,

I feel like such a fool to have been so gullible,

to have taken it so seriously, when in fact,

it's so obvious that it's completely idiotic and ridiculous.

As a Raëlian,

you have a mission to accomplish, so it was unthinkable to have a child.

Raël demanded utter loyalty.

Now that I'm a father,

I think becoming a parent is the most beautiful thing ever.

My daughter was born two months ago.

I'm very proud, and she's adorable.

And I'm trying to... to make up for lost time.

I'm now 57 years old,

so it's not an ideal age to become a father,

but I'll try and do my best.

I had never realized the cult could be dangerous.

But when you're inside it,

you don't know you're being manipulated.

You don't know it.

You don't really think for yourself.

Even if you're told, "You're free to think for yourself,

you have free will."

Ultimately, you think as a group.

You don't have free will.

Someday, maybe Brigitte will wake up

and realize that she was manipulated the entire time.

Maybe.

I hope that she will.

What if you were told that it was all a scam?

If Raël were to say that it... it was all a lie,

and that it was a very elaborate work of science-fiction,

I'd burst out laughing.

I'd be ever so thankful to him.

And, I wouldn't change a thing about who I am and what I did.

I feel I have such an amazing life,

that I wouldn't change a thing.

Not a thing.

RAËL STILL LIVES IN JAPAN.

BRIGITTE BOISSELIER IS STILL A RAËLIAN AND LIVES IN MEXICO.

DAMIEN MARSIC LEFT THE RAËLIAN MOVEMENT IN 2016.

HE LIVES IN CHINA AND WORKS IN A LAB SPECIALIZING IN GENE THERAPY.
