A heart-wrenching performance about life as it is in the youth institution.
A girl is taken away from school in a police van and placed in a closed youth institution. “Voyeur” is the gripping story of a child torn from her environment and left to fend for herself in an environment that offers far from protection. Tears can be shed on the couch, in front of the television, when the supervisors of the closed youth institution are not watching and are busy completing their crossword puzzles. The weekend is an even greater torment than the week. Unloved children like emaciated chickens searching for the missing purpose in their lives. This story questions the ethical responsibility of imprisoning children. This is not a story of forgiveness, pity, or revenge.
