Sammie & Lydia’s Stories. Breaking Silence Season 3 Episode 4: The Hague Convention
A powerful documentary featuring Sammie and Lydia, co-founders of the New Zealand Hague Collective which helps other protective mothers navigate this terrifying international law. Their experiences were traumatic; their situations desperate. And yet the Hague Convention sent them back to their abusers. Their courage in sharing their stories, and their generosity in deciding to use their experience to help others, is beyond inspirational. We are proud to know them. https://www.haguecollective.co.nz
