Shame, sexuality, flashbacks. What is the true legacy of the Freedom Village? To answer that question, Margaret talks with past interviewees and hears how their experiences of exploitation, and even conversion therapy have impacted their lives, often for years, decades, and even generations after leaving the Village. Maggie's knowledge as a clinical therapist helps us to uncover some of the more insidious psychological consequences of the treatments administered to the Village’s wards.
