For decades, human reproduction specialist Roger Abdelmassih has fulfilled the dream of hundreds of couples who could not have children. But gradually, allegations of sexual abuse began to emerge. Thirty-nine patients accused Abdelmassih of abuse and the doctor was sentenced to 278 years in prison in 2010.
This absurd affair has already given rise to the mini-series “Assédio”, by Globo, and now to this documentary series in four episodes, directed by Luiza de Moares and produced by Mixer Filmes.
