An intimate essay about walking without fear

After an unexpected encounter with a group of women attempting to take to the streets, Patricia begins an intimate yet collective journey to understand the violence she has experienced. Amidst the resurgence of feminist protests, she journeys through her own history and that of her mother, as well as the women she fights alongside of, to discover that in a violent world, creating modes of self-defense and preserving joy can be revolutionary.
