INTERNATIONAL
WOMEN'S DAY

On March 8th, we celebrate International Women's Day! In light of this occasion, we have curated an empowering film program that celebrates femininity while also addressing misguided male thinking and actions. The program explores body images and self-reconciliation, challenges perpetrator-victim stereotypes and the male gaze, and delves into fundamental rights and acts of revenge.

An amateur filmmaker who has filmed bears for years, contacts a film school looking for someone to edit his images into a film. A student comes forward. But when she digitises his archive, she discovers that the recordings are not only of bears. A discussion ensues about the power of a gaze and its voyeuristic violence.

Jonna's childhood friend Louis assaulted her sexually when they were both about 12 years old. While Louis almost forgot the incident, Jonna is struggling with PTSD. The situation is very demanding on Jonna's loved ones as well. Does an offender have to act in bad faith to be violent? Who is to be blamed? The docu-fiction short shows a montage of five staged interviews while playing with clichés.
