The Milk of Sorrow (The Scared Breast)

Fausta (Magali Solier) suffers from the scared breast, a strange illness that is transmitted by mothers who have been raped or mistreated during their pregnancy or nursing period. The children of these women are irremediably infected by their milk and inherit a terrible atavistic fear. Fausta’s illness manifests itself in the form of haemorrhages or bleeding during moments of crisis or extreme tension.Fausta also keeps a secret she won’t reveal until her mother’s death will unleash a series of unexpected events that will change her life.
