More4 Drama

The True Voice of... is a series of hard-hitting monologues performed by actors using the words of real people.

Each programme contains three films, featuring a different crime – murder, rape and prostitution – from three individual perspectives. What we hear are the raw words of real people, without comment or analysis. What we get is unique access into the inner workings and deep emotions of each person – whether the victim or perpetrator of the crime.
