Photography. A portrait photo of Gisèle Pelicot and the text: "Merci Madame". The photo shows an older woman with a wrinkled face, wearing her short reddish hair in a pageboy cut. She is wearing a blue and black patterned blouse and is standing in front of a door to a courtroom where several men are standing. Her hand is clenched into a fist, but she doesn't look threatening, she looks brave. She looks into the camera. Info: 71-year-old French woman Gisèle Pelicot was drugged by her husband for years and offered sex to countless men. She herself knew nothing about it and was only informed by the police. The trial against her husband and 50 rape victims has attracted a lot of attention, partly because she does not want to be a victim, because it is not she who should be ashamed, but the cowardly perpetrators. The verdict in this exhausting trial was announced today and Madame Pelicot has given many women the strength not to give up and to fight back. Thank you, Madame.
