The childhood of little Martina is marked by abuse and violence from the very beginning. She is only five years old when her father first assaults her. When the small child turns to her mother for help, she is beaten for her supposed lies. The father continues to abuse her over the following years, becoming increasingly brutal. It takes a long time for the now young woman to free herself. But then she enters a new hell, where her partner brutally and mercilessly tyrannizes her and their child. A harrowing true story that aims to help other victims find the courage to process their experiences, rise up against their tormentors, recognize that it is not the victims who are to blame, but the perpetrators - and finally break free from their fate.
