Singer Vivir Quintana perform during a showcase at Polyforum Cultural Siqueiros on May 27, 2024 in Mexico City, Mexico.

By some estimates, some 90% of murders in Mexico go unpunished. But when a woman in Mexico kills an abusive partner, many of them do end up in jail convicted of “excessive use of legitimate force”. Mexican singer-songwriter Vivir Quintana started looking into the issue and found compelling, tragic tales. We speak to Quintana about her new album which tells the stories of some of these women.
