Lovely Enemy - Mobile Film Festival Stand Up 4 Human Rights

par Mobile Film Festival 2018 - Human Rights UK

Synopsis : At first the abuse was verbal; screaming, yelling. She made excuses for him, thinking his jealous rampages were a sign of his uncontrollable passion and love for her. Then the first punch came. He threatened to kill her if she tried to leave. Her mind became a whirlwind of conflicting emotions. She tried to be perfect for him. She loved him. But the abuse continued... And she decided she would no longer allow herself to be a victim of his machismo anymore. And so she ran away. This film portrays the reality faced by thousands of women, victims of domestic violence. In most cases, they become hostages of an abusive relationship and, many times, they can't escape it, for different reasons: threats, shame and even love. Even with the law Maria da Penha, which guarantees the protection of victims of domestic violence, the last data from the Brazilian annual report of Public Security shows that in Brazil, every two hours, a woman is murdered. Since 2005, the Mobile Film Festival reveals and promotes new talents thanks to an international competition open to the largest number, with very simple rules : 1 mobile - 1 minute - 1 film.
