  • Titles of Audio-Visual Documents
OBS

Video produced in 1989 by the Vidéothèque services gouvernementaux, government of Quebec. Nine-year-old Claudine appears to be just like other girls her age-until her teacher brings up the subject of child sexual abuse. From that point, we learn, through Claudine's narrative, the story of how she was sexually abused by her neighbour and how the case was brought to court. The film describes that process, and it portraits the fear of a young girl giving evidence of sexual abuse in court.
