DIRECTORA: Annika Mayer
PRODUCTOR: Jakob Krese
ESTRENA: Espanya
SINOPSI
Un curtmetratge sobre la invisibilitat de la violència domèstica. Mentre observa pel·lícules en Super8 sobre el que semblava una idíl·lica vida familiar alemanya en la dècada de 1960, l’àvia de la directora, Rose, descriu la realitat de viure amb un marit violent. La pel·lícula reflexiona sobre com les imatges poden ocultar veritats doloroses i com es poden reescriure les narratives familiars per enfrontar el trauma i buscar la sanació.
