Abstract
This article analyzes the workings of state justice in the Women and Children's Police Stations as they appear in the documentary The Day that You Love Me (1999), by French-Nicaraguan director Florence Jaugey. Focusing on biases towards masculinities in institutional practices, the article examines how observational documentary film, when used with a hybridization of other modalities, is adapted to the questioning of the objective authority of the law in cases of gender violence.
