This energizing narrative film describes a genuine terrible story happened in 1974. A 12-year-old young girl named Jan Broberg was captured by the hand of her neighbor and her parents' closest companion. The film tells subtleties and shrouded insider facts behind this wrongdoing.
Disturbing but not irredeemably horrible. More it's a fascinating story of misplaced trust and single minded obsession that's a must-watch for true crime nerds and documentary fiends.
While it's easy to think that no one alive could be as naive as the Brobergs, the documentary is a sobering reminder of the power of manipulation, the failures of the justice system.
If there is a point to Abducted beyond simply retelling the saga's many horrors and waiting for the viewer's jaw to drop, it might be its own principals' disbelief.
The fact that "Abducted In Plain Sight" left me with a feeling of uncleanliness wasn't just because of its subject matter, believe it or not. It was the way the subject matter was handled.
Abducted In Plain Sight is one of the most harrowing true-crime documentaries I've ever seen. Abducted In Plain Sight is a remarkable and unforgettable survivor story.
[Abducted in Plain Sight] does not allow for a deeper reflection because its director does not seem interested in complexities. [Full review in Spanish]
It unpacks too many bizarre events in a short time frame to allow for much additional analysis. And the Broberg family, confessional to a fault, are primed more for honesty than for self-inspection.
