Well I haven't read the book that it's based on, nor have I seen any criticism of either the book or the teleplay, but it was a well-meaning attempt to absolutely not show the full relationship between the church and indigenous communities. It's one story. And as stories go, it's not the worst. The priest only dies after making friends with the tribe he's sent to minister to.

Now I'm starting 4:44 Last Day on Earth (2011), an Abel Ferrara film notably starring Willem Dafoe and Natasha Lyonne. So it seems darkness is expectable here. Yeah, just skimmed the Wikipedia article and you should take the title seriously. But there also seems like there's a lot of lovin' along the way.
