Hell's Angel is a 1994 Channel 4 television documentary about Mother Teresa hosted by Christopher Hitchens, directed by Jenny Morgan,[1] and produced by journalist Tariq Ali.[1] Hitchens and Ali co-wrote the programme's script.[2][3]
A precursor to Hitchens’ book The Missionary Position: Mother Teresa in Theory and Practice (1995), the film argues that Mother Teresa urged the poor to accept their fate as their destiny and for the poor and sick in particular to submit to the substandard and unsafe nontherapeutic medical care provided by her clinics while she endorsed and accepted money from a variety of rich and powerful people who had stunning ethical lapses.
