Women in most cultures are expected to be the perfect wife, the perfect mother, the perfect employee uncomplainingly. While patriarchal upbringing makes women submit to these demands, how does society treat them when they can't meet its standards? In Spain, countless women suffer from fibromyalgia - a chronic disease which creates intense pain and fatigue and renders them motionless. With doctors being dismissive of their symptoms and society calling them liars, their treatment gets unduly delayed. What can help these women to alleviate their pain and be immune to society's barbs?
