This is the story of two siblings. Their parents loved and nurtured them. But the parents also practiced brute force on them: The children were beaten, even when wounded. They were slapped when they fell down. Sometimes for no reason. The parents didn’t regard that as a contradiction. They claimed to love their children, and the children believed them.

The two children are the director and her brother. The film documents the history of the family as well as the attempt to talk about something that is usually kept a secret: The abuse of one’s own children.
