A harrowing yet loving survivor profile and psychological study.
Honest, brutal, personal--it's unlike any documentary you've ever seen before.
Synopsis
- E. Sue Blume, Secret Survivors
Honesty.
It is the only tool through which we will understand the mindset of someone who has quite literally been through hell -- years of abuse followed by denial and cover-up by those who surrounded her.
This is not the story of what happened. This is the story of who she is now -- and will be in the future.
Why We Are Making It
Vijay Rajan
I want this film to be achingly real to the women who are undergoing or underwent the trials this film portrays -- and also to the men who love those women. The film will only end in triumph if Elisabeth finds her way to hope and healing. It is a scary road with only one guarantee: honesty.
Elisabeth K.
I want this film to shed light on the fact that incest rape is very much a horrible reality for many women, happening more often than many realize. I hope sharing my story will be a catalyst for women who are also suffering, an insight for the men they are dating, and a healing step for many.
