Ruinerwold made world news when a hidden farm was discovered, where, for years, a secretive and unregistered family had been living. The four oldest children decided to tell their side of the story exclusively to documentary maker Jessica Villerius. They tell about their hidden existence, the religion of their father and the alleged abuse within their family. But they also celebrate a birthday for the first time, get an ID card, visit their father in prison and follow the lawsuit against him. An exclusive portrait of a family no one knew about until October 13, 2019.
