"I realised that I was going to be raped and that being raped was better than being dead, so therefore I was going to submit." (Rape Victim). For most women, rape is a life-threatening situation. In nearly 70 per cent of cases the woman knows her assailant. This film takes a close look at the violent crime of rape. It talks to women who have survived it, men who have committed it and follows the Metropolitan Police as they investigate an allegation of a brutal gang rape of an 18-year-old girl.
