Episode Information

On 2 Feb 2013, 17 year old Anene Booysen was brutally gang raped and mutilated. Her death caused a massive outcry from South Africans, but the national outrage was short-lived. One year later, it seems that not much has changed in the small town of Bredasdorp since that fatal February night. Commentators have speculated that the culture of South Africa is still not to take violence against women seriously. So what can be done?
