Synopsis

FÁTIMA TRINDADE, a trainee lawyer who has been living in Fortaleza, Brazil for the last 5 years decides to move back home - São Tomé and Príncipe, when she finds out that her teenager sister FAYNA suddenly stopped talking.
While pursuing answers to her sister's strange condition, Fátima is confronted with her own still open wounds from the past. Meanwhile, Fátima meets for the first time in many years, her old neighbor ROBERTO VARELA. This reunion brings up painful memories from her childhood. It feels even more painful when Fátima realizes Fayna has been abused by Roberto. Fátima starts facing the events of her past and looks for a way to get justice and put her abuser behind bars against her mother’s will.
During the trial it’s hard for Fátima to face her rapist, her mother, the judge and even her sister that she feels that she is hurting. Even though Fátima has a strong case against him, Roberto is found not guilty.
Fátima feels that she has failed and let everyone down, but when she goes out of the Court a crowd of women is outside to give her support and some women let her know that they too are victims, and they are also fed up with the impunity for these crimes.
