When British expat Janice Hunter died in her home in Cyprus in 2021, her husband David Hunter was jailed for her killing. The Cypriot prosecutors claimed it was murder, David argued that he was putting his wife out of her misery – after months of pain with blood cancer. After 19 months inside David was released.

With exclusive access to David and his family and using David’s intimate and emotional home movies Mercy Killing – A Love Story unlocks the story of their relationship: a teenage love affair, a fifty-year marriage and a tragic end.

Meanwhile, on the horizon, is the Cypriot authority’s battle to put David back in prison.
