For a few months, their marriage was perfect and when she became pregnant, they both felt blessed. However, after the birth of the baby, things changed. Joaquin began to show signs of a hidden personality…one fueled by jealousy and anger. It was not long before he physically started taking his frustrations out on Angela. At first, she tried to stick things out - until one day it went too far. Frustrated by a system that offered no help, she finally decided to take the matter into her own hands. Average Rating:

The sudden transformation of a man who was in love, occurs precisely after knowing his happy wife is pregnant. The gradual tension will be increasing when the violence speech and the physical agressions become normal. The levels of desperation and slow but effective arousing about the awful reality of this distorted situation will ...
