Synopsis
 

Imagine that you are pregnant. You are in your ninth month. You feel an intense pain. You faint. When you wake up you are at the hospital, surrounded by police officers. They accuse you of having killed your own baby. This is the story of Teodora Vásquez, the spokesperson of the  "17 y más" accused of aggravated homicide because of having an obstetric emergency in El Salvador.
