In conversation with Isabelle Thieuleux

Women’s Right Network

Continuing the series of WRN weekly zooms made available for wider listening, WRN's Elizabeth Foster invites French lawyer and feminist campaigner, Isabelle Thieuleux to talk about her experience of the French legal system in light of Giselle Pelicot and the mass rape trial which saw her husband and 50 men convicted, and sent shockwaves through France and far beyond for its levels of depravity. 

The interview explores the differences between French and UK definitions of rape and the cultural impact of the trial in France.
