Lorena Gutiérrez Rangel

A decade after the murder of her daughter Fátima at the age of 12, the victim of a brutal femicide, Lorena Gutiérrez takes a stand outside the National Palace to demand a meeting with Mexico’s first woman President.

Art is a freedom for those who make it and for those who look at it. A freedom that ends when the violence starts. In Mexico, every day eleven women are murdered and in more than ninety percent of the cases impunity prevails. Through the testimony of seven women, this documentary essay reflects on femicide and the destruction that this leaves a country and its culture. Because in times of horror, art cannot be the same, every time a woman is murdered, a museum or a library collapses in the world.
