Abstract:
With this compelling real-life drama, Anick Lavigne paints the vivid portrait of an abusive husband and father.

BROKEN is the engrossing story of Anick, a young woman who left the convent and decides to marry her childhood friend. What follows is the struggle to escape a life filled with traumatizing beatings that begin when she is just six months pregnant with her first child. She battles to overcome the shock of this violent life, the incessant emotional battering and crippling fear, in an attempt to protect her children from her husband's oppressive control and increasing physical abuse.
