BBC 100 Women

Episode Synopsis

Greenland has been rocked by a scandal revealing a Danish campaign to curb its growing Inuit population from the mid 1960s to late 1970s. Now being officially investigated, about 4,500 women had an intrauterine device, commonly known as coil, inserted - often against their will. BBC 100 Women goes to the heart of the scandal, meeting women who've begun piecing together reasons behind physical and mental trauma that they'd endured for decades in silence.
