This experimental short film explores the reconstruction and recollection of traumatic events through fragmented memories, using a non-linear narrative and a layered visual approach. The film emphasizes the penetration of montage, with an anarchic and chaotic tone that reflects both fun and disorder. The film brings to life concerns about how a woman moves, how she speaks, dreams, and how she is stripped of her inherent qualities by a society which continues to sexualize and harmfully perceive her. It visualizes a recollection of thoughts, dreams and memories, symbolically intertwining the characters experiences of their conscious with their subconscious.
