False accusations in Spain
When it comes to family court cases, the male part in most cases has no rights before the Spanish courts. In many cases the man leaves the courtroom as the losing party.
The 34-minutes video programme presents some of those persons who lately have ended up in a chaotic situation in the Spanish court system. It is based on talks maintained with these victims and linked with a summary of the statistics available and a written histology.
The courts do not punish false accusations presented by a woman although it is punished by the article 456 of the Penal Code; on the contrary, the courts accept false accusations from the Spanish women. Against the judge the man is considered guilty until he has proven the opposite and the result is often a tale of tragedy and mayhem.

The "invitation"
The campaign against gender violence shows the masculine part as the only aggressor. The campaign offers several facilities to women and the result of this are often growing feelings of hate against men and a run to the police station which is where a woman has to present her accusations in the first place.
In airports, train stations, television, e.g.
The Spanish Ministry of Equality takes many commercial steps to demonstrate that the father is bad and the mother is the good part.
A clear message for all - also for the children.

The "victims"
The Spanish courts do not punish the false accusations presented by women. The judicial practice of the courts constitutes the basis of destruction of the family relations and the children, in particular, turn out to become the big losers.
Interviews with people in the streets in Spain reflect the insecurity and powerlessness.
