Traditional African belief has it that nothing happens for natural reasons in life. Any ill fortune is the work of witches. Children are particularly targeted because people believe that once possessed, they can cause spells, terminate others in the family and once accused, they are forever feared.
Children are then abused and left with severe wounds, sometimes they are abused to death.
Very unsettling documentary, yet much a needed dose of reality.
