Domestic Violence

Season 1

TV-MA

Sindri Sindrason is now talking about domestic violence and we look into the world of victims who seem to have in common that they dare not tell for the longest time, are ashamed and want no one to know. Then we try to look into the minds of the perpetrators and try to understand what it is about their behavior that makes victims submit to their will.
