My father Was Not A Famous Russian Writer | 3 of August

a scenic documentary

Synopsis

A body going through an experience. And the narration in scenic format of that experience. From a starting point: the discovery of a family silence and the need to reconstruct the story of my paternal grandmother. A personal and social research project. A reflection on the body and mental suffering (the physical body, institutional, mental, social, health, affective, political, etc.) and how these bodies and these voices with mental suffering encounter a society that stigmatizes other realities, other ways of being in the world. An individual and subjective experience that in the act of sharing it becomes social.
