The authorised retrospective book for the Kevin Smith movie Dogma, starring Matt Damon, Ben Affleck, Linda Fiorentino, Chris Rock, and Jason Mewes, features exclusive interview material with cast and crew, including the director, and never-before-seen imagery.

Written and directed by Kevin Smith, Dogma follows two fallen angels, Bartleby (Ben Affleck) and Loki (Matt Damon), who discover a loophole in Catholic doctrine that could allow them to return to Heaven, threatening the very fabric of existence. To stop them, a group of unlikely heroes—including a faith-struggling woman (Linda Fiorentino), the erased 13th Apostle (Chris Rock), and Jay (Jason Mewes) and Silent Bob (Kevin Smith)—must prevent the apocalypse. With irreverent humour and sharp satire, Dogma explores faith, salvation, and the human experience.

The Official Story of the Film takes an in-depth look back at Dogma’s production—from inception, through the shoot, to post-production—its initial reception, and subsequent 25th anniversary resurrection with a 4K remastered rerelease. Featuring exclusive new interview material with the cast and crew, including Kevin Smith, alongside never-before-seen imagery, this is the ultimate celebration of one of the director’s most beloved films.
