The Lost Girls of South Africa

Watch this episode now on 4oD The Lost Girls of South Africa

In South Africa a child is raped every three minutes and AIDS continues to spread with epidemic ferocity.

Dispatches follows four girls aged 11 to 13 as they struggle to come to terms with the crimes committed against them and fight the social stigma that comes with the abuse.

From the multi-BAFTA-winning True Vision team, this is an intimate and deeply moving portrayal of the tragic impact of child abuse in a post-apartheid South Africa still coming to terms with its difficult and violent past.
