In the shadows of a seemingly ordinary life, Fran Benedetto harbors a harrowing secret, cloaked in the bruises that she conceals beneath her clothes and the fear that shadows her every move. For eighteen years, she has endured the volatile tempest of love and violence at the hands of her husband Bobby, clinging to the fragile hope of maintaining a semblance of family for the sake of her son. But one fateful night, the reflection of terror in her child's eyes becomes the catalyst for change, propelling Fran on a desperate flight towards freedom and an uncertain future. Assuming a new identity as Beth, she navigates the complexities of starting anew in a place where the echoes of her past life cannot reach her. With her son by her side, she endeavors to reconstruct the shattered pieces of her existence, all the while haunted by the imminent threat of Bobby's vengeance. "Black and Blue" is a poignant exploration of resilience in the face of unimaginable adversity, a testament to the indomitable spirit of a mother determined to forge a safe path forward for her child, even as the specter of her former life looms ever near, threatening to undo the fragile serenity she fights to achieve.
