At 31, Inna Shevchenko, a Ukrainian feminist activist, is a major figure in the Femen movement. She co-writes her biography, in 2 volumes.

Born in Ukraine in 2008, the Femen movement is known for its "topless" protests to denounce violence against women’s bodies in abuse, trafficking, and rape. In 2012, Inna was the subject of a criminal investigation by the Ukrainian police. She left her country and obtained political asylum in France in April 2013. She was 23 years old at the time. This story, written in the first person, recounts the childhood (volume 1) and adolescence (volume 2) of Inna Shevchenko in Ukraine. It tries to answer this ques tion: why and how did Inna become the world-renowned feminist activist she is today?
