The Missing (2014x36)

Air date: Mar 25, 2014

Every year, more than 2000 people go missing and never return. This powerful, moving First Cut documentary follows the extraordinary stories of three families struggling to cope with the disappearance of a loved one who has vanished without a trace. A brother, a husband and a mother have gone missing: three dramatic, mysterious and out-of-character disappearances that have left police detectives scratching their heads. The families left behind have been plunged into limbo, unable to move forward with their lives in the absence of evidence, answers or closure. The programme explores how hope is driving them to extraordinary lengths as they try to bring their missing loved ones home.
