Carmen Aguirre has lived many lives, all of them to the full. At age six she was a Chilean refugee adjusting to life as a Latina in North America.

In her early twenties she fought to find her voice as an actress and to break away from the stereotypical roles thrust upon herHousekeeper, Hotel Maid, Mexican Hooker #1all the while navigating the complex paths of lust and heartbreak. As she grew in her career, Aguirre became a writer, a director, an actress, and then a mother, but alongside her many multi-faceted identities was another that was unbearable to embrace yet impossible to escape; that of the thirteen-year-old girl attacked by one of Canadas most feared rapists. Thirty-three years after the assault, Aguirre decided it was time to meet the man who changed her life.
