Gisele Pelicot was the woman at the centre of the biggest rape trial in French history. For a decade her husband drugged and raped her, and brought at least 70 men into their home in order to rape her too.
She made the remarkable decision to let the world know who she was – waiving her legal right to anonymity, before the trial of her rapists began. Her powerful plea – that shame must change sides – resonated around the world.
