“Interrupted Life: The Case of Isabella Nardoni” is a story about the difficult fight that the mother of the murdered Isabella had to fight with the Brazilian justice system. The documentary shows the scale of the problem of violence against children in some families. The creators also took into account the power with which public opinion tried to influence the actions of the judiciary.
The case of Isabella Nardoni involved not only the Brazilian media, but also bystanders who expressed great indignation during organized manifestations and protests. These actions led to solving the mystery and bringing to justice the perpetrators of this cruel murder.
A murder uncovered
On March 29, 2008, a resident of an apartment building in the northern part of São Paulo alerted the authorities that a girl was lying unconscious on the lawn. Resuscitation, which lasted almost half an hour, was unsuccessful, and 5-year-old Isabella died on the way to the hospital. The girl’s father and his then-partner unanimously testified that an attacker entered their apartment and threw Isabella out of the window.
However, the girls did not believe in their version of events. She decided that the girl’s father and his partner should be the main suspects in this case. The woman’s assumptions were confirmed by the evidence collected by the investigators and the inaccuracies in the couple’s testimonies.
