CN: This film is about pedophilia. If you are or have been affected by abuse yourself, you can find further information and offers of help here: https://www.hilfeportal-missbrauch.de "I am a pedophile." - Imagine if a friend came out with this statement. How would you react? The subject of pedophilia is still a huge taboo in our society - almost none of those affected dare to speak about it publicly. Also because pedophilia is often equated with child abuse - although only the absolute minority of pedophiles become perpetrators. Pedophiles often suffer greatly from being viewed as monsters by society. Frank wants to deal with this taboo and meets with Ruby and Sirius. They are pedophiles - and have been a couple for a year and a half. How do they deal with their pedophilia? Are they afraid of becoming perpetrators? And what would they like to see when dealing with pedophilia? We know that this topic is very emotional and that many of you will find it very difficult to put yourself in the shoes of those affected. However, please remain respectful and polite and try to imagine what reactions you would want if you came out - because people do not choose their inclinations. If you suspect that you are a pedophile or would like to find out more about the topic, take a look at "Kein Täter werden": https://www.kein-taeter-werden.de/ The treatments there are free, anonymous and subject to confidentiality.

Why do we let animals suffer? Do we drink too much? Or: What does porn do to us? My team and I are interested in questions that have something directly to do with our lives, but also topics that are important to all of us and are often only discussed superficially. We look for answers to these questions, week after week - openly, honestly and independently. To do this, we don't meet experts, we are there: at the slaughterhouse, at the swinger party, while proselytizing in the pedestrian zone. And because we want to get to know as many perspectives as possible in our search, we always spend several weeks on a question. In the end, we want to provide an answer, even if that isn't easy for us. With each video - and especially in the discussions with you - we get a little closer to answering the big, tricky questions.
