In the early 1980?s, Raffaëla lives in a pseudo Moslem family in the rough Parisian suburb of Gagny. ?Pseudo? Moslem because? Islam? in the tough suburbs usually means, especially for women, severely limited freedom, broken dreams and often no real childhood.

At age five, Raffaëla already has an ?adult? life behind her with physical and psychological wounds she must forget in order to survive.

Tender violence is the vibrant personal testimony of a terribly painful, abusive childhood. The story of a young girl's struggle with hypocrisy and sexual taboo who chose to become a porn film actress. But there was no escaping the violence of her childhood. It caught up with her when she least expected it. Can one ever be free from the past? Is it possible to stop the vicious circle?

Raffaëla Anderson was born 1975 in the Parisian suburb Montfermeil. Her essay on the pornographic industry, Hard (Grasset 2001), was a worldwide success.
