Thirty years ago, in a quiet neighborhood of Buenos Aires, the dismembered and burned body of a teenage girl appeared. The case was closed without culprits and her middle-class Catholic family slowly fell apart in silence. Now, the hidden truth comes to light thanks to the determination of the victim's father and reveals the cruelty of religious fanaticism, the social pressure on women and the complicity of those who stay silent.
