Overview |
Η Φραγκογιαννού, μια ταλαιπωρημένη γυναίκα με σαλεμένο νου εξαιτίας μιας δύσκολης ζωής, αναθυμάται το παρελθόν δίπλα στην κούνια της νεογέννητης εγγονής της. Η μάνα της ήταν κακιά, ο ένας της γιος εγκληματίας. Το μυαλό της θολώνει και πνίγει το μωρό, καθώς θεωρεί ότι τα κορίτσια φέρνουν στην οικογένειά τους μόνο προβλήματα. |
