Echoes in the Night: The Search for Jacob Wetterling

In 1989, on a quiet road in rural Minnesota, 11-year-old Jacob Wetterling is abducted by a masked gunman. The case remains shrouded in mystery for decades, until a courageous sexual-assault survivor, a citizen journalist, and Jacob's unshakable parents demand action. After the case reaches a devastating conclusion, they are all left to question what "closure" really means.

A Minnesota-based film crew spent a decade capturing the Jacob Wetterling story as its conclusion and aftermath unfolded in real time. The resulting documentary is a gripping and intimate look at how an unthinkable crime touched so many lives.
