Keep Sweet: Pray and Obey

The title of the series is derived from the motto "Keep Sweet, Pray, and Obey," coined by the preceding president Rulon Jeffs, and used to convey how women should behave in relation to their husband. According to a woman going by the name "Charlene", who was interviewed in the series, the mantra was frequently sung aloud, and meant "to be in control of your emotions and you didn't display things like anger or resentment or frustration." The latter part of the motto, "Pray and Obey" is shown to adorn the chimney of a house belonging to Warren Jeffs. == Premise ==

Several former FLDS members, or survivors, are interviewed by Dretzin on both their experiences inside the church, as well providing testimony to Jeffs' systematic coercion and exercises of power toward the members of the congregation. who had previously done several reports on the church, private investigator Sam Brower, who had investigated the church for several years, and attorney Roger Hoole. ==Episodes==

According to Dretzin herself, the focus "[is] not only the experience of being in that cult", but instead "It's on the people, particularly the women who managed to defy it and escape it, which—if you know anything about the FLDS—is a pretty miraculous and incredible thing to do.” The series also featured background film with actors portraying both Jeffs and relatives of interviewees in all of the episodes. Dretzin has also expressed interest in making a second season, albeit stating that the decision is ultimately up to Netflix; she would eventually direct the companion series Trust Me: The False Prophet about Samuel Bateman. == Reception ==
