The Fight Against Child Abuse
Film director Wolfgang Luck meets the judge at Oberlandesgericht Karlsruhe, Klaus Böhm, who has founded a society to help criminal pedophiles with therapeutical help. „As judge I’m able to lock away the offenders for some years but doing so the problem is not tackled by its roots“ Böhm says. At BIOS, this is the name of the society, not only criminals are treated but also potential crimanals, men that know that they are pedophile but didn’t commit a crime yet. In behavioural therapy they should learn to commit no abuse on children. This is a painful and difficult process.
The TV-team accompanied Michael for several months. He is a pedophile man living in Karlsruhe. He produced photos and videos of naked children in Thailand and is now waiting to be tried. He is one of the rare pedophile men that found a place for therapy. Will he be successfull in controlling his dangerous feelings with the help of the therapy?
