The Man Outside
Documentary | 11mins | 2024 | HD
When the law can't protect you, who will?
A young woman’s life turns into a nightmare when she realises her ex-boyfriend is stalking her. As his actions grow increasingly menacing, she turns to the Police, only to discover that Aotearoa’s legal system is unable to protect her due to the absence of anti-stalking laws. Left with no official support, she and her flatmates are thrust into a harrowing real-life thriller, where they must rely on each other to confront a threat that grows more dangerous with every passing day.
