No, but parents with intellectual disabilities betray their children by settling for money instead of prosecuting their children’s abusers.

There is an awful moment where a girl hides in a locked bathroom stall, but her abuser appears above her from the other stall. We anticipate it so not exactly a jump scare. There are other moments where the predatory man appears or is shown in a jarring manner.

It’s very hard to explain. It’s sad in the sense that the children didn’t get justice and another child died, but has a good ending in the sense that more people come forward to help prevent this happening again.
