Francisca awaits the trial of her ex-partner, accused of domestic violence against her. Cláudia, Francisca’s daughter, witnessed and documented the consequences of the psychological aggressions inflicted on Francisca after the end of their relationship.
This court case led Cláudia to question herself (through Francisca’s biography) about the role of women in a patriarchal society, often placed “in the pink corner”.
