IFFR 2023
An urgent look at recent international political events, brilliantly intertwined with the director’s personal conflicts as a daughter, a mother, and an artist. Moving through the home, the streets, and online chat rooms, it offers a dynamic perspective on history, which is more relevant and needed than ever.
