   Brazil has recognised the crime of Femicide for years, but the numbers don't go down.

     @LanguageMan1 The documentary features this wonderful police officer who started the "Women's Protection Patrol" in her city.
     Women can call them if they are being threatened, and they will visit the neighbourhood daily, move women to secret addresses, monitor the men so they can arrest them quickly if necessary, and refer women to agencies who can support them.
     The patrol works in the roughest neighbourhoods.
     They have around 130 women on their list at any one time. None of them have suffered any more violence.
     One woman calls them her "Angels in uniform".
     
     It's a very moving documentary.

     Much like femicide is high in Guatemala and other countries.
