Ellen: Die Storie van Ellen Pakkies plot

"When a mother's love forces her to act"

In 2007, Ellen Pakkies strangled her drug-addicted son Abie. The question is whether Ellen Pakkies acted in self-defense, desperation or calculation. Did something snap in her that day—as her lawyer claimed—or did she know exactly what she was doing? The film starts with the murder and tells, parallel to the developments after, how the mother came to her act. Based on true events.
