Sekter findes overalt i vores samfund, men de kan være svære at få øje på. De eksisterer dog i bedste velgående, og der er mange. I serien SEKTENS GREB fortæller tidligere medlemmer fra blandet andet Jehovas Vidner, Faderhuset, og Evangelist/Powerhouse om deres vej ind og ud af et sekterisk miljø. Vi går bag om de problematikker, som sekter skaber. Vi tager hele rejsen fra den første kontakt og rekruttering til sekten, til sektens psykologi, livet i en sekt, livet som pårørende, exit og de ofte meget store kon­sekvenser, det har at have tilhørt en sekt.
