- Synopsis
- Based on true events. In 1950, Singapore, a custody battle over thirteen-year-old Bertha Hertogh (a.k.a. Nadra), turned into a violent clash between the East and West. By the year’s end, 18 people would be dead, 250 injured and the life of the little “Jungle Girl”, Bertha Hertogh, and all those around her, shattered. 25 years on, in 1975, a Dutch TV show would reignite the story. After years of trying to forget and move on, the wounds of those involved would be reopened. Linked by this one incident, the lives of Vivian Davies, Haja Mathur and Bertha Hertogh become intertwined once again. As lives start to unravel, heading towards insanity and murder, the search for the truth of what really happened back in 1950 is the only thing that will set them free.
