Pedophilia and child sexual abuse have been themes in many films. Child molestation is an overriding theme for many of these films, like I Know My First Name Is Steven. Some films do not explore the abusive nature of the adult/child sexual relationship, like Voor een verloren soldaat. Others, like L.I.E. depict an abuser who has a few endearing qualities. Some movies focus on positive aspects of the relationships, for example Le Souffle au coeur or Du er ikke alene (You are not alone).
