The trial of the Mazan rapes has brought to light the harrowing experiences of Gisèle Pelicot, who was victimized by her ex-husband, Dominique Pelicot, and numerous other men over a decade.

Dominique Pelicot is accused of drugging his wife and facilitating her assault by strangers he recruited online.

The case has sparked widespread discussion about the "culture of rape," highlighting how sexual violence is ingrained in society.

Many of the accused claim manipulation by Dominique, yet evidence, including video recordings, suggests otherwise.

Gisèle Pelicot, who has become a symbol of resilience, has publicly expressed her anger at insinuations of her complicity, emphasizing that a violation is a violation, regardless of context.

The trial underscores the systemic nature of sexual violence and the societal tendencies to overlook such crimes.
