BBC Two - Love You to Death: A Year of Domestic Violence

The gripping and untold stories behind Britain's shocking domestic violence statistics.

Documentary examining the violence inflicted by men on women every day, telling the stories of all the women who died at the hands of a male partner or ex-partner during one year.

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.

BBC Two is a lively channel of depth and substance, carrying a range of knowledge-building programming complemented by great drama, comedy and arts.
