DOMESTIC ABUSE AS LOVE

From the most insidious psychological pressure to the most spectacular physical attacks, domestic violence always has the same aim: the negation of the other person and even her psychological or physical destruction. Women tell us about their experiences and men question themselves about what happens within them. Together, they describe the mechanisms that lead to this confusion between love and violence… Even though the fault lies with the attacker, victims and aggressors are linked by mutual suffering. These stories of love and rage force each and every one of us to question our ideas about marital relations, their workings and their goals. A film of highly intimate accounts around a certain idea of love.
