Whispers In The Dark

In 2007, serial rapist Johannes Mowers was arrested. He led police to a large burrow covered in corrugated iron where he was keeping two girls, one of them four years old, who he had kidnapped in 2005. The girls were severely traumatised and it appeared that Mowers had sexually abused the older girl, aged 14. This sensitive film tells the girls’ story, and tries to understand the mind of a man who could perpetrate such inhumane crimes.
