A short excursion into the history of the intimacy of the rural grandmother summarizes the attitude in which women in the first half of the 20th century, under the roof of strict church teachings and general social conventions, were understood in the physical sense as an object to satisfy their husbands' sexual desire. The individual images of pain and suffering, fear and devotion to fate, as experienced by the grandmother, and with her also by most of the rural women of her generation, are depicted in a mischievous animation that overcomes old taboos with imaginative moves.
