Her work contributed greatly to the advancement of children's rights. But how was it like to grow up as her son? And why did she keep parts of her history a secret? 'You cannot understand life or people unless you understand childhood,' Alice Miller said. Her first book, 'The Drama of the Gifted Child' (1979), became an international best-seller. In it she describes how children must adapt to the needs of adults and endure parents' conscious or unconscious projection of their own experiences onto their offspring. Many people felt that she verbalized their own childhood for the first time. In 1986 NRK journalist Anne Elisabeth Andersen made a unique interview with Alice Miller for NRK., which was screened under the title For your own good. . She also visited Miller several times in her home in Provence. After Miller's death in 2010, Andersen contacted Miller's son Martin. He had astounding things to tell her about his mother's background as well as his own childhood.. 140900 Andersen's meeting with Martin Miller resulted in the making of this documentary, telling the unknown, dramatic story of a pioneer within childhood research.
