A powerful reminder of the power of journalism to fight for justice. I'd highly recommend this film to all.

Wonderful and inspirational movie! Very riveting story and just beautiful visually!

An intriguing documentary, Netflix needs to pick this up!!

As a younger person living in Jersey, I found this to be really eye-opening. Shows how easy it is to cover up secrets.

Eye-opening and tear jerking documentary. An incredible story of bravery of the survivors, who clearly went through a living hell for decades and now finally have their story shared. And a huge credit to the bloggers who fought from the beginning and never gave up on the survivors or the truth, and to the directors/producers for putting together such a heartbreaking story. This is a must watch.

This was watched in Jersey and very quickly forgotten and the main reason is because they had heard it all before, and many times. We had a £26 Million inquiry which involved some 400 witnesses. Now the former HSS Minister who instigated this program, never even bothered giving evidence to that inquiry and despite his pleadings for legal representation, which as a former Politician, he did not even need. His Public Duty to give his sketchy evidence was his call and nobody else's. The Train has been and gone. But for the rest of the Island the Care Inquiry is over, the appointed Children's Commissioner is doing her job and the Island moves on. The other thing is that out of a population of some 110,000 Islanders, this only affected some 200 people in Care. So the majority of Jersey people would have no indirect or direct connections to any of it.

Speaking as a Survivor of the system, there is no doubt failures happened. But I found this Documentary did me more harm than good. It is a shame the makers did not take into account the many Survivors who need and want to move on since the end of the Jersey Enquiry some years ago. And there were no proven child murders at Haute de la Garenne so I wish outside Journalists would stop repeating this nonsense. Jersey was dragged into an unnecessary Media storm at the time away from the real abuse that happened, and some people keep on trying to take us back there. Please stop.
