On average, seven women a month in Britain are killed by their male partner or ex-partner. This
documentary by acclaimed director Vanessa Engle tells the gripping and untold human stories behind
this shocking yet faceless statistic, shedding light on a majorly important subject - the continuing
and disproportionate violence visited by men on women every day.
The film features a roll call of all the women killed by their male partner or ex-partner in the
course of one calendar year. Of the 164 women murdered in Britain in 2013, 86 were killed by their
male partner or ex-partner. This film names all 86 women and, through interviews with families,
friends and neighbours, tells the stories of seven of them in detail.
