In this powerful drama Yenan is a dynamic executive in her 30s, who has the perfect life to all outside observers — a happy marriage to her husband, Bruno, a well-respected prosecutor; a loving 16-year-old son; and a position leading a successful cocoa bean export business. But behind the scenes, Bruno is abusive, and his outbursts have been increasing as Yenan fails to become pregnant with a much-wanted second child. After years of silence, Yenan slowly comes to realize that the cycle of violence must be broken, as she accepts her fears and finds the strength to look truth in the face.
