Description

For the past four months, a trial in France has caught global attention, as a court has heard how Dominique Pelicot tranquilized his wife of 50 years so dozens of men he found online could rape her.

Those 50 men, including Dominique Pelicot, stood trial for rape and sexual assault, while their survivor Gisele Pelicot, waived her anonymity to testify.

The case has started a new conversation in France about victims of abuse and the treatment of women as a whole, but will it bring the changes campaigners are calling for?

Lucrezia Millarini is joined by ITV News Correspondents - Chloe Keedy and Rachel Townsend from France, where they've been covering different aspects of this case.
