IN THE NAME OF THE MOTHER

Although Cora’s (17) world seems perfect, she feels that many pieces don’t quite fit. Her father, Emilio, works for an NGO and is a well-loved figure in the neighborhood, and her psychologist tells her she should pay more attention to him… However, she begins to suspect that her father is using her to hurt her mother, Raquel, who suffers from depression. Her brother, Ryu, will help her see things more clearly…

At the same time, we learn the story of Miriam (22), whose father was never sent to prison for abuse; instead, her mother, in trying to protect her, ended up being institutionalized.
