Part 2/9:
The protagonist, Margaret, finds herself in the clutches of the Magdalene Asylum after an unfortunate incident at a family wedding. Assailed by her own cousin while the celebration unfolds without a hint of her despair, she bravely reports the assault to her family, only to be met with disbelief and scapegoating. Rather than supporting her, her family perpetuates the shame, branding her a seductress and sending her to the asylum, a fate shared by many of her contemporaries who suffered similar injustices.
