Mokradełko

Halszka Opfer published a memoir describing years of abuse by her father, with her mother's silent consent. Though she used a pseudonym, everyone in town knew her, and she went on television to speak openly. Here she is seen by her husband, neighbours, mother-in-law and doctor, who wonder why 'Victim' does not act like one. Her mother disowns her; when Halszka travels to see her, the reporter goes along.
