Read the full message posted by Janja:
“Last night I had the honor of watching the show Prima Facie, a call to conscience, which portrays the weaknesses of the judicial system in the face of violence against women.
In it, the spectacular Débora Falabella gives life to a lawyer who built her career defending those accused of sexual violence, until her own story was crossed by this reality.
During the play, we delve into the complexities of gender-based violence and the urgency of rethinking structures that often fail precisely those who most need protection.
I would like to thank Débora and the entire production team and cast for the invitation and kindness.”
