About

Follow the true stories of Juliana, Celeste and Kristina in "Not Without My Sister" as they struggled to flee from a community which denied them formal schooling, mercilessly beat them for unpredictable crimes and even forced them to watch and mimic orgies. When the girls' mother manages to escape with Kristina, she is determined to return to the place of torture to free her remaining sisters - but will they all make it out together?
In "Born Into the Children of God", Natacha Tormey is exposed to similar terrors, torn away from her parents to be beaten daily and forced to sing and dance for entertainment in prisons and malls. When Natacha managed to escape at the age of 18, she found herself struggling to come to terms with the world she had left behind, yet unable to fit into the life she had run to. Shocking, moving, but ultimately inspiring, this is Natacha's full story; both a personal tale of trauma and recovery, and an exposé of the secret world of abuse hidden behind commune walls.
