Summary
This multi-award winning program about childhood sexual abuse dramatizes the life story of victims who grew up never feeling safe in their own home. While this program is emotionally compelling, it is delicately told, with no graphic, sexual or violent scenes. The program presents several women recalling their childhood sexual encounters with adults. The major portion is a gripping narrative by one survivor who suffered abuse from several relatives, beginning in early childhood. She shares with us her pain at discovering that her own husband was abusing their daughter. The program ends on a positive note, showing that the nightmare realities of childhood can be set aside and survivors can establish new, loving relationships. An important awareness film for psychology, sociology, nursing, criminal justice, counseling, and general audiences as well.
