| Beskrivelse: [ Dansk Engelsk ]
I begyndelsen af 70'erne rapporterer den amerikanske tv-station CBS om et af de værste tilfælde af børnemishandling nogensinde. I en forstad til Los Angeles opdagede man en 13-årig pige, som havde været låst inde af sine forældre hele sit liv. Katie tilbragte sit liv fastbundet til en stol uden menneskelige kontakt. Dette betød, at hun var uden sprog, havde en snublende gangart og en dyrisk fremtoning. Katie var et vildt barn, og vejen tilbage til et menneskeligt liv skulle blive lang. Beskrivelse: [ Dansk Engelsk ]
She was a modern-day 'Wild Child' - and her true, heartbreaking story which shocked America.
For virtually all her life, 13-year-old Katie had been imprisoned by her mentally deluded parents. She had been locked in a room, tied to a 'potty-chair' where she endured years of isolated silence punctuated by brutality. She could not speak, nor understand any language.
But even when she was released from this living hell, Katie's misery was far from over. Doctors and psychiatrists descended on the traumatised girl in droves, each eager to claim the miracle of 'curing' her. Throughout this nightmare Katie had one true friend: Sandra, a young linguistics student, who became her closest companion and could see the fragile, beautiful teenager within this abused girl who behaved like a wild animal. |
