ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
In 1999, Paulina RamĆrez, only thirteen years of age, was raped and got pregnant. With her familyās support, she went to her local clinic to terminate her pregnancy, but neither her young age nor the violent circumstances in which she became pregnant granted her this right.
Ā
The doctors argued a conscientious objection, determined to stand by their religious believes, and refused to perform the abortion, leaving Paulina and her family at a vital crossroads.
Elena Poniatowska presents the moving chronicle of a case that sparked outrage and fused the struggle for Mexican womenās reproductive rights.
