At a time when domestic violence is surging through the US, the film explores the shocking persistence of violence against women, as refracted through the story of Kim, a Duluth, MN mother of three.
Kim, a Duluth, MN mother of three, is at the center of this compelling exploration of gender violence. As Kim and her daughters flee to a domestic violence shelter, we follow the harrowing struggles in a single-parenting survivor's quest to find work, housing and peace of mind. This multi-level narrative also examines the causes of domestic violence and solutions that have evolved to stop it.
