A simple bedtime story turns into an avant-garde nightmare as Mailin decides to confront her past to protect her daughter's childhood. Over several years, director María Silvia Esteve followed Mailin Gobbo's fight for justice against the abuse of a Catholic priest, a family friend. Blending documentary and fiction, the film draws on family archives and trial recordings to paint a poignant portrait of survival and memory with remarkable aesthetics. María Silvia Esteve highlights Mailin's agency in the narration, presenting survival not as endurance but as an active reclaiming of the past. A film as fascinating as it is urgent, skillfully swinging between reportage and visual art.
